More details to this question:
I am the victim in a domestic violence 2nd degree assault and am trying to help my boyfriend to get charges dismissed. There's a no contact order so we are not around each other. We do want to stay together. I'd like to get the no contact order gone. At the moment, I have changed my address. Does the subpoena gets forwarded?

You can request the court to lift the no contact order now. Given the degree of assault, the prosecutor likely has evidence to go to trial without your assistance. You should think twice or a third time about getting back into this relationship. It is not healthy.
