This weekend I met a young lady who told me her story of past domestic violence. She is in her early 20's and had been dealing with it since age 16. Of course she said she never really told anyone and refused to leave all while making excuses. In everything she said, the thing that stood out to me the most was that she had no one to help her and no information about where she could get help. She also said some of her friends don't know either. Hear this...In 2026, we are beyond the information age- please know you can Google any word or phrase to get what you need.
