“This has been of great value to me and my children as we transitioned out of an abusive situation and into a more stable one. The facilitations helped bridge the gap for me and my children to be able to talk about our feelings, our memories and our own struggles from both the past and also in the present. The topics we covered were exactly the themes we need to address in our situation. I really enjoyed the ability to share my story with people who would not judge me, but instead support me and my children. I also gained strength from hearing stories of other women in the group. I saw that the women in the group are wonderful, strong women and felt encouraged by their stories and resilience. I also know that having my children in a group where other children who have experience similar things as them made them feel like they were not alone and helped them to eliminate any feelings of shame or isolation. They have gained great support from this. They have also felt loved and supported by the leaders who have powered them through the length of the program. I am incredibly grateful for this program and would encourage any woman who is in this situation to reach out and get help for her children and for herself! The facilitators in the program are educated, experienced, and very kind people who can hold you up as you get back on your feet again!”
