DVI Announces New Executive Director Carin Anne Gomes
Carin Ann Gomes.

Domestic Violence Intervention, Inc. (DVI) is proud to announce the appointment of Carin Anne Gomes as the new Executive Director.  After 26 years, Karen Moessner has retired. Ever the advocate for those needing shelter and services, Moessner has ensured a smooth transition will be implemented as she and Gomes work together over the next few weeks. "Leaving this work is bittersweet for me,” Moessner said, “being part of the movement is so much a part of me. I have encountered so many strong women who are survivors, advocates, and supporters, and I am so grateful for the experience." 

Incoming Executive Director Carin Anne Gomes has deep roots in Fallon and is dedicated to breaking the cycle of violence. "Every individual deserves dignity and respect. Their perspective matters, and I am committed to helping clients where they are in their lives,” she said.

"Making a lasting, positive impact on the health and safety of our communities is at the core of my work," Gomes said. “By improving home environments, I believe we can create a ripple effect that enhances the lives of families and individuals throughout our community." 

Gomes looks forward to building on existing relationships and creating new partnerships to enhance the agency's mission of empowering individuals to lead lives free of violence and fostering a safe and nurturing environment for all individuals and families.

DVI is dedicated to providing comprehensive support and services to survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault in Churchill and Lyon Counties. To learn more about services provided by DVI, visit dvifallon.org.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
