Building Safer Futures Through Prevention and Education in Franklin County Schools
CAPSA is excited to share that we are beginning prevention and education presentations at Preston High School, Preston Junior High School, and Franklin County High School. This step reflects what we have consistently heard from families, educators, and community members: a strong desire to equip young people with skills that support healthy relationships, leadership, and safety,now and into the future.
Franklin County is a place where people care deeply about their kids and their neighbors. The growing interest in prevention education speaks to that commitment. By working together with schools, students, and families, we can build on the many strengths already present in our community while offering practical tools that help prevent harm and promote connection.

CAPSA Awarded $3.6 Million to Launch Transitional Housing Project in Garland, Expanding Survivor Support in Northern Box Elder County
GARLAND, Utah — CAPSA (Citizens Against Physical and Sexual Abuse) has been awarded $3.6 million through Utah’s Deeply Affordable Housing Fund (DAHF) to support the development of transitional housing for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault in Northern Box Elder County. The funding will allow CAPSA to complete essential infrastructure for the full site and construct two fourplexes as the first phase of the project.
The project is being developed on seven acres of land donated in 2024 by Dr. Jan-Erik and Jennifer Schow. The Schows donated the land with the hope of increasing access to safety and stability for survivors in Tremonton, Garland, and surrounding rural communities where distance often prevents individuals from seeking help.
“Survivors in Northern Box Elder County face real barriers, especially when support services are a long drive away,” said Jill Anderson, CEO and Executive Director of CAPSA. “This award helps us move forward with greater confidence and momentum. Transitional housing will provide stability during the critical period after leaving abuse, helping survivors move toward long-term safety, healing, and independence.”
“We toured CAPSA in Logan and saw firsthand how deeply survivors are supported there,” said Dr. Jan-Erik and Jennifer Schow. “We also knew that survivors in our community need help closer to home. Donating this land felt like a meaningful first step in bringing more support to Northern Box Elder County.”
Tremonton and Garland represent a combined population of more than 10,000 residents. While Box Elder County is home to established and dedicated survivor services, the Northern part of the county currently lacks transitional housing options for individuals and families rebuilding after abuse. CAPSA emphasized that this effort is intended to be complementary to the services already provided in Box Elder County and is focused on addressing a long-term housing gap that often forces survivors to return to unsafe situations or leave their community altogether.
Housing is consistently cited as one of the top barriers survivors face when leaving an abusive relationship. Rising costs and limited availability in Utah make it especially difficult for survivors to secure safe and stable housing. Transitional housing is a proven strategy that supports survivor safety and long-term outcomes by providing stable living options paired with supportive services.
In addition to DAHF funding, CAPSA has secured support from additional significant donors to help expand the project beyond the first two fourplexes. CAPSA is especially grateful for the commitment of Dell Loy Hansen, his family foundation, and the Wasatch Group, who are heavily involved as partners in helping bring this vision to life. This funding enables CAPSA to include additional fourplexes and office space to provide survivor services closer to home.
CAPSA has formed a local advisory board comprised of Northern Box Elder community members to guide engagement and build strong partnerships as the project progresses.

About CAPSA
CAPSA is a nonprofit organization serving survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault in northern Utah and southern Idaho. CAPSA provides crisis response, shelter, transitional housing support, counseling, advocacy, and prevention education. CAPSA’s mission is to create safe homes and empowered communities.
At CAPSA, we are privileged to work alongside a remarkable volunteer board of directors who guide our vision and ensure our mission remains steadfast. These dedicated individuals generously offer their time and expertise, helping CAPSA support victims of domestic and sexual violence and create lasting change in our community. Today, we are thrilled to introduce three exceptional new members to our board: Marcia Stewart, Dan Johnson, and Carol Johnson.
Marcia Stewart recently moved back to Cache Valley after living outside of DC. With a background in D.C. politics—enhanced by both professional experience and personal networking alongside her husband—Marcia brings a wealth of connections and insights. Marcia shared that shortly after returning from DC, she served on a jury for a sexual assault case. She was impressed that the victim, upon sharing her experience with a friend who was still a teen, knew about CAPSA and encouraged her to call CAPSA for support. Marcia is already connecting CAPSA with local, state and national representatives furthering our advocacy and outreach efforts.
Dan Johnson joins us after a distinguished career of 50 years in education and is currently serving as a Utah State Legislator. Dan’s passion for supporting CAPSA is well known, and his efforts have been instrumental in raising awareness and securing essential funding for our organization. With a respected and influential voice in the legislative arena, Dan is poised to play a critical role in advancing policies that protect and empower survivors. His commitment to CAPSA’s mission is unwavering, and we are excited about the impact he will make on our legislative initiatives.
Carol Johnson, a retired educator with a distinguished background in curriculum development and teacher training, brings a unique perspective to CAPSA. Her lifelong dedication to empowering educators and students aligns perfectly with our educational programs, which focus on promoting healthy relationships and consent. Alongside her husband, Dan, Carol shares a deep commitment to CAPSA’s vision and values. Her experience and passion will be instrumental in enhancing our community’s educational and advocacy efforts.
At CAPSA, our board of directors plays a crucial role in guiding our organization’s vision and ensuring we remain focused on effectively supporting survivors of domestic and sexual violence. We are deeply grateful for their commitment and are confident that Marcia, Dan, and Carol will further strengthen our efforts to create a safer and more compassionate community.
We are excited to welcome Marcia, Dan, and Carol to our board, and we look forward to the invaluable contributions they will make in the years to come.

April is a month of profound significance – it marks Sexual Assault Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness, supporting survivors, and advocating for change. At CAPSA, we stand at the forefront of this crucial movement, determined to break the silence and create a safer, more informed community for all.
This April, CAPSA is making its presence known throughout Cache Valley with a bold and impactful awareness campaign. From vibrant yard signs and X-frames to striking vinyl banners, our message is clear: sexual assault is unacceptable, survivors deserve support, and together, we can make a difference. As these signs dot the landscape, they serve as powerful symbols of solidarity and support for survivors, and reminders that their voices matter.
Continuing the Conversation: Education and Advocacy
But our work doesn’t stop with signage. At CAPSA, we are committed to continuing our efforts to raise awareness through education and advocacy. Throughout the month, we’ll be conducting trainings and workshops to equip community members with the knowledge and tools they need to prevent sexual violence and support survivors. Additionally, we’ll be visiting city councils to speak on the importance of believing survivors and advocating for policies that prioritize their safety and well-being. By engaging with local leaders and decision-makers, we hope to spark meaningful change and foster a community that believes, supports, and empowers survivors.
Observing Denim Day: A Symbol of Solidarity
As part of our observance of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, CAPSA will be observing Denim Day on April 26th. Denim Day is a global campaign that originated in protest of a court ruling that overturned a rape conviction because the survivor was wearing tight jeans. By wearing denim on this day, we stand in solidarity with survivors and send a powerful message that clothing choices are never an invitation for sexual violence. It’s a simple yet impactful way to show our support and raise awareness about the prevalence of victim-blaming attitudes.
Join Us in Breaking the Silence
This April, we invite you to join us in breaking the silence surrounding sexual assault. Whether it’s by displaying a yard sign, wearing denim on Denim Day, or simply starting a conversation with friends and family, your actions can make a difference. Together, let’s raise our voices, raise awareness, and create a community where survivors are believed, supported, and empowered.
Here to Help
At CAPSA, we are committed to providing survivor-centered services that meet the unique needs of everyone who seeks our support. When you call CAPSA at 435-753-2500, you can expect a warm and welcoming response, information and support, advocacy and support, and confidentiality. We want survivors to know that they are not alone and that they have the power to make informed decisions about their safety and well-being. If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence or sexual assault, please don’t hesitate to call CAPSA.

Saranoni’s Donation of Blankets Brings Comfort to Survivors and Gratitude to CAPSA’s Donors
Saranoni, a luxury blanket company, has made a generous donation of blankets to CAPSA to support survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. The donation includes blankets for CAPSA’s shelter, providing comfort to individuals during their stay, as well as blankets to be gifted to individual donors who support CAPSA’s vital efforts.
CAPSA, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing support and shelter to survivors, relies on community contributions to sustain its critical work. Recognizing the importance of expressing gratitude to these generous donors, CAPSA sought a partnership with Saranoni to provide high-quality blankets as tokens of appreciation to CAPSA’s numerous donors, an invitation that Saranoni welcomed. In time, “thank you’s” weren’t the end of Saranoni’s donations!
Saranoni’s substantial donation of blankets aims to bring comfort and warmth to both survivors seeking support from CAPSA and the organization’s valued contributors. The blankets donated to CAPSA’s shelter have a meaningful impact on survivors, as individuals often arrive with nothing. Many survivors have expressed that their time in the shelter is the first time they have felt safe and able to sleep without fear in a long time. Saranoni’s blankets provide an additional layer of comfort to help them heal and rebuild their lives.
In addition to supporting survivors directly, Saranoni’s donation includes blankets to be gifted to CAPSA’s individual donors during various honorary events. These blankets serve as symbols of gratitude, recognizing the significant contributions made by these individuals in supporting CAPSA’s mission. CAPSA understands that these meaningful gestures help foster a sense of community and inspire continued support for their vital services.
“We are incredibly grateful for Saranoni’s generous donation,” expressed Alyna Ohling, CAPSA’s Marketing and Community Engagement Director. “The blankets provided by Saranoni not only offer physical comfort to survivors but also symbolize the shared commitment to creating a safer and more caring society. We deeply value this partnership and the positive impact it will have on both our donors and the survivors we serve.”

Stander increases their support of CAPSA’s Annual Golf Tournament to honor founder Jan Miller’s love and support of CAPSA.
Stander, a local mobility device company, and the family of Jan Miller, the founder and former CEO of Stander, have committed to becoming the presenting sponsor for the Jan Miller Memorial Golf Tournament for CAPSA. This move marks an increase in the companies’ support of the non-profit organization, which provides help and support to survivors of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and rape in Cache Valley and Rich County.
The Jan Miller Memorial Golf Tournament is one of CAPSA’s most significant in-house fundraising events, raising over $50,000 each year. All of CAPSA’s services are provided free of charge, and the funds raised from this event go towards supporting individuals and families escaping violence, beginning new lives, and healing from associated trauma.
Jan Miller, who was a longtime board member of CAPSA, was passionate about empowering survivors of domestic violence to become independent. She served on the board from 2006 until her passing in 2018 and as the board president was instrumental in the establishment of Independence Place, a CAPSA-owned neighborhood of nine homes, the creation of an endowment, and the expansion of therapy services. In honor of Jan’s memory, CAPSA renamed the annual golf tournament to the Jan Miller Memorial Golf Tournament in 2019.
Stander has been a longstanding supporter of CAPSA and has now committed to becoming the presenting sponsor of the Golf Tournament. This sponsorship is a testament to the company’s commitment to honoring Jan’s legacy and love for CAPSA.

Neil Roberts has created a raffle for a 6 hour dragon tattoo piece. All proceeds will be donated to CAPSA.
Tattoos have long been used as a way to express oneself, to mark a momentous occasion, or to commemorate a loved one. But for one local tattoo artist, his reason for giving back to his community is deeply personal.
CONTINUUING HIS MOTHER’S WORK
Neil’s mother was part of the original Code R response team at CAPSA. He talks of his mom leaving at all hours to support survivors of Sexual Violence. To this day, the Code R teams responds to support survivors of Sexual Violence at Cache Valley Hospital where they can receive a Forensic Sexual Assault Examination. Through his mother’s work with Code R, Neil saw firsthand the impact that CAPSA had on survivors and their families.
For him, giving back to CAPSA is a way to honor his mother’s dedication to the organization and to continue her legacy of service to survivors. He sees his art as a way to raise awareness and support for CAPSA, and to help ensure that survivors have access to the resources and support they need.
THE DRAGON AS THE ART PIECE
The reason Neil has chosen a dragon as the art for the piece is because of the symbolism of the dragon as a hero and protector. In many cultures, dragons are seen as powerful symbols of strength, courage, and resilience. They are often depicted as guardians or protectors, watching over those who are vulnerable and defending them from harm.
For the artist, the dragon represents the kind of strength and resilience that survivors of domestic and sexual violence must have in order to heal and rebuild their lives. Through his art, he hopes to celebrate this strength and to remind survivors that they are not alone.
Neil mindfully sees his art as a way to give back to the community, and to help make a difference in the lives of those who have been impacted by domestic and sexual violence.
For the artist, supporting CAPSA is not just a matter of philanthropy, it is personal. Through his art and his dedication to the organization, he hopes to honor his mother’s legacy and importantly support survivors.

“I am amazed to see how much CAPSA has grown. Jill and her team have built one of the most impressive nonprofit organizations I’ve ever seen. We are so fortunate to have them serving our neighbors and friends in need of their services.” – Scott Wyatt
DEREK CARLSEN
Derek Carlsen has over 20 years of human resources experience with Schreiber Foods and previously ThermoFisher.

Recently promoted to Regional HR Director, Derek now oversees multiple Schreiber plants, expanding his influence and support for CAPSA within the corporate sector. Derek plays a pivotal role in maintaining CAPSA’s connection with Schreiber Foods as a home sponsor and golf participant.

Logan, UT – CAPSA, a nonprofit domestic violence, sexual assault, and rape support and recovery center serving Northern Utah has been recognized as one of Utah’s 100 Companies Championing Women by Inspire In Utah, an initiative of the Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Opportunity. This recognition identifies and celebrates companies that offer family-friendly policies and practices, as well as women-specific initiatives known to impact the recruiting, hiring, retaining, and advancing of women employees, managers, and leaders.
CAPSA was founded in 1976 by a group of volunteer women who established a rape support phone line in response to several high-profile sexual assaults. Law enforcement began sharing this phone number with domestic violence victims, and CAPSA expanded its scope to support both domestic and sexual violence – this shift included providing shelter for individuals and families of domestic violence in their own homes.
“CAPSA was founded and built by women on the foundation of supporting and empowering women,” stated Jill Anderson, CEO of CAPSA. “We want all women to be safe and successful in their personal and professional lives. This commitment includes the women who work at CAPSA.”
CAPSA’s onsite and discounted childcare for staff was recognized by 100 Companies Championing Women as a significant benefit for reducing the barrier of childcare and allowing for continued professional growth. CAPSA’s childcare is a small part of a larger children and youth program for the children of survivors of domestic and sexual violence staying in CAPSA’s emergency shelter, utilizing casework/advocacy, participation in support groups, and/or meeting with their clinical therapist.
“Within our onsite daycare, our staff’s children learn compassion, empathy and to involve others,” stated Anderson. “It is so sweet to see a timid child who may need CAPSA services enter our trauma informed children’s center and hear this core group of staff children say, ‘Look a new friend!’ This provides a safe welcome space for all children.”
CAPSA’s children’s programs include youth advocacy and utilize child development models that prioritize emotional wellness, compassion, and empathy. CAPSA has been providing children’s services, including onsite childcare to staff, since 2002.
“When I recently toured CAPSA, I was very impressed by their vision for supporting the women they serve and employ,” stated Susan Madsen, founding director of the Utah Women & Leadership Project. “Knowing that nonprofits often face limited resources, it is even more remarkable that CAPSA has been offering onsite childcare for more than 20 years.”
CAPSA was nominated for onsite childcare, flexibility with work schedule, paid family leave, transitioning support after maternity leave, pay equity efforts, women leadership, and women presence on the board of directors.
“CAPSA is honored to be recognized as one of Utah’s 100 Companies Championing Women,” said Jill Anderson, CEO of CAPSA. “We remain committed to our mission of empowering women and providing the support and resources they need to reach their personal and professional goals. This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our staff, volunteers, and supporters.”

The Malouf Foundation Announces their Continued Commitment to Provide Bedding to CAPSA’s Shelter
Logan, UT – The Malouf Foundation has recently announced its continued commitment to providing bedding to the Citizens Against Physical and Sexual Abuse (CAPSA)’s emergency shelter. The CAPSA shelter is a 36-bed homeless shelter that provides refuge to survivors of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and sexual exploitation.
During their stay at CAPSA’s emergency shelter, individuals and families meet with shelter caseworkers daily to develop personalized action plans that prioritize their goals, including securing safe and affordable housing, obtaining employment, obtaining protective orders, and supporting children’s physical, social, and emotional needs.
In FY22, CAPSA sheltered 271 individuals (140 women, 21 men, and 110 accompanied children) for a total of 5,857 nights (average of 22). Jill Anderson, CEO and Executive Director of CAPSA, emphasized the shelter’s vital role in the lives of survivors, stating, “Domestic violence is complicated and often dangerous. When individuals and families enter CAPSA’s emergency shelter, they are often escaping danger, and all are working to build a new life free from abuse.”
The Malouf Foundation, based in Logan, Utah, has grown to become a national organization focused on reducing sexual exploitation through education including OnWatch™, promotes healing through Rooms Restored™ and Restorative Care Centers, and furthers advocacy for survivors through children’s justice centers. While the Malouf Foundation’s programs grow, Kacie Malouf, co-founder of Malouf Companies™ and Malouf Foundation board chair, reaffirmed the Foundation’s continued commitment to supporting individuals impacted by sex trafficking and exploitation, stating, “CAPSA is the sex trafficking aftercare center serving Cache County and Northern Utah and has been a supportive partner of the Malouf Foundation.”
Malouf Foundation has been providing bedding to CAPSA since 2011. Donations have included pillows, comforters, sheet sets and mattress protectors for use in the shelter. Malouf Foundation also donates mattresses, bed frames and bedding to many families moving from shelter to housing. Malouf Foundation also donated and installed new furniture and room accessories for a common living space at CAPSA through our Rooms Restored program.
“As we expand our reach and impact, we remain committed to supporting local individuals impacted by domestic violence and sexual exploitation, stated Kacie Malouf. “Malouf Foundation will continue to support CAPSA and their mission. We know their programs are saving and changing lives.”
If you would like more information about CAPSA or to find support, please call their 24-hour crisis support line at (435) 753-2500 or visit capsa.org.
