the problem:
The problem im trying to help solve is domestic violence, I want to help women out of their situation and help them get housing if needed, help send the women to school so they can get a degree in something so they can become independant strong women. My project will also provide counseling for women and children to help the healing process. My project will also provide child care for women obtaining degrees or who are working in our program.

3why it's important:
This is important to me because any kind of abuse should never happen to anyone, no matter race, age, sex, it shouldnt happen to anyone. And i want these women and children to get the help and attention they need to become strong and never have to depend on someone. It also makes me think, what if my mom was a victim of abuse, where would i be? I would be lost without my mom so this is very dear to my heart and my families heart, and i love to help others.
the plan of action:
I want to assist women to find housing to help get them out of their violent situation, i also want to send these women to school, i want them to obtain a degree with my program, i will also help with job placement and child care for women who are going to school or who are working jobs with my program, and for women who dont have the health care they need i also want to help them get the care they need.
how you can get involved:
Others can help by donating money time and love. If you are able to go to schools and churches and other places to speak on the important of domestic abuse awareness you can help. If you can donate any amount of money you can help. If you want to talk to the women and children and counsel them then you cat help. If you have a car suv or small van then you can help by donating it or even volunteer your time to help transport us to doctor appointments, job interviews, and back and forward to school. If you can tell ppl about the program you can help.
