We met Nadine at a local library, tired and scared.
She was trapped in an abusive relationship along with her children, living with a partner who controlled her life. The library was the one place she could find relief and safety.
There, Nadine realized she could receive the support she needed.
Every week, she came back to the library and met with our Hope on the Road staff. Together, they created a safety plan for her and her children.
Pushing back her fear, Nadine courageously left her abusive situation and began taking steps toward stability and freedom.
Last year, nearly 6,000 women who could not access one of our physical centers came to a Hope on the Road site for free services.
Nadine’s story is a reminder of why communities need easily accessible support. When women can safely connect with important resources in their own neighborhoods, lives and families change.
No woman should face a crisis alone.
