A local organization that advocates for victims of domestic violence will be looking for a new leader starting in 2024.  HELP of Door County Executive Director Milly Gonzales will leave her position at the end of December to become the Associate Director of End Domestic Abuse, the statewide domestic violence coalition.  Gonzales, who has led HELP of Door County for the past five years, says it was a bittersweet decision to leave the organization, but the opportunity to advocate in a bigger role was too great.

Operations Manager Sue Farley and Program Manager Moriah Turk will be interim co-directors as the Board of Directors search committee seeks a new executive director for next year.   The HELP of Door County Board of Directors credits Gonzales “for making the organization stronger and leaving it in solid financial condition and ready to face the future”.
