On its 25-year anniversary, Crossroads Safehouse is reaching one milestone it would rather not.

For the first time in its history, the nonprofit organization for victims of domestic violence is dipping into operating fund reserves as national outpouring of support for Hurricane Katrina victims drains funds from local organizations.

While Crossroads Safehouse supports the relief effort and has offered to open its doors to hurricane victims, the organization also has noticed a decline in local funding since the tragedy."
