The abuse will get worse and we deserve better.”
The people at Shelter Movers were great. They were there to help me move my belongings to my new, safe home. They were very supportive and kind. My stress levels are so much lower. I am no longer on eggshells all the time and I am able to sleep better.
The stories I tell myself are slowly changing.I don’t need him. He’s not going to change.I will survive on my own.Thank you so much for all of the support I received from Shelter Movers.”Your support helps survivors flee abuse, but your impact goes much deeper.You change their story.Please consider a gift to help the women putting on a brave face for their children, the women struggling in silence, the women needing our help to leave.
