​These days, every time we turn on the news, something else is shifting and by the time you are reading this they are bound to have changed again.

Today, I am pausing that series to bring attention to an issue that has been increasingly impossible to ignore: homelessness in Peterborough and the surrounding areas that are served by the River Center such as Dublin, Greenfield, Jaffrey, Mason, New Ipswich, Rindge, Sharon and Temple.

As seen in the Monadnock Ledger Transcript column, A View from the River by Odette Butler (May 27, 2025)

​I was so relieved and excited to receive compliments from the community on last month’s column, where we highlighted Kelli Tourgee, The River Center’s Home Visitor/Parent Educator. Your feedback reassured me that we’re on the right track—celebrating our incredible staff and showing that our programs are led by some of the most caring, knowledgeable, and dedicated people you’ll ever meet.

As the new Executive Director of The River Center, I am amazed everyday by the awesome crew I am so lucky to work with. This is the first of what I hope will be many opportunities for you to hear directly from our staff and truly understand what The River Center means to them and to this community.
​

In recognition of National Child Abuse Prevention Month, I’d like to highlight Kelli Tourgee, our Home Visitor/Parent Educator. Kelli has served in this role at The River Center for 27 years. Over the years, we’ve received countless affirmations of her work and her unique ability to meet families where they are, helping create positive change and outcomes.
