"As a previous victim of domestic violence, I wanted to assist other women who are experiencing this physical, verbal, and emotional abuse. I am very passionate about the vision of this organization. Most importantly, I look forward to the impact this organization will have for the women who have experienced domestic violence, women of all ages that could be the one of three who experience domestic violence and the community as we advocate together against domestic violence"
