DFW New Beginnings is a non-denominational church in Bedford, TX.

Horizon Outreach's mission is "Giving Everyone A New Start". We accomplish this mission by providing programs that decrease the effects of challenging life situations on the family.We serve military, non/military families including at risk youth. Our programs provide key resources that: increase self-sufficiency, employability in career positions, workforce development/certifications, access to permanent affordable housing and overall health and wellness of the family. Our services have proven beneficial to the community as evidenced by the 4,500 plus individuals & families (this number includes 1,700 military families) Horizon Outreach has connected to resources and services since being founded since 2010. As discussed, Horizon Outreach has 5 programs. The program that I would like to highlight, is the Horizon Eagle Fatherhood Program. This program was designed to help military and non-military fathers be better dads. Over 1,064 fathers have completed the Horizon Eagle Program. Each father gained skills to improve their relationships, parenting skills and employment skills. With our new grant we will be assisting young teen fathers to find employment and to gain parenting skills. In addition, Horizon Outreach provides case management to assist fathers and families with housing, rental/utility assistance, employment, and other needs. Horizon Outreach also pays for Forklift Training, TWIC (transportation worker’s identification card) Cards and CDL (Commercial Driver’s Licensing/Training) for fathers as well.

Project Horizon is dedicated to reducing domestic, dating, and sexual violence in the Lexington, Buena Vista, and Rockbridge County area through crisis intervention services and prevention programs. This non-profit agency began in 1982 as a grass roots effort to provide confidential services free of charge to battered women in the Rockbridge County area. In 1996, Project Horizon merged with the Rockbridge Area Coalition Against Sexual Assault (RACASA) and began providing services to victims of dating, domestic, and sexual violence. Project Horizon’s outreach programs and direct services to clients include a 24-hour hotline (463-2594), emergency shelter, crisis intervention, counseling, applicable referrals, and legal advocacy. Project Horizon has no income eligibility for the services offered. All services are confidential and free of charge. Project Horizon provides training to allied professionals to improve services to victims of violence. The agency presents prevention programs in schools, churches, and to civic groups on topics such as sexual harassment, sexual assault, and dating violence. We accomplish our work with 9 full-time and 7 part-time staff, a 12 member Board of Directors and over 30 volunteers.
