Kits filled with comfort items for survivors of domestic abuse / violence residing in a women’s shelter.

Growing up, I was subjected to domestic violence and watched my mother fall victim to it for many years. She, however, didn’t stay a victim. She emerged as a survivor, and so did I.

Both my mother and I are survivors of domestic abuse. Out of respect and privacy for her story and mine, I’ll withhold any further details.

I would like to introduce, in honor of my Mother Sonia, my Survivor Care Kits! 💜 Survivor Care Kits are kits filled with comfort items for survivors of domestic abuse / violence residing in a women’s shelter.

I’ve chosen the Detroit Police Victim’s Assistance Program as my first location. Oftentimes, women’s domestic absuse shelters are secret locations so that the victims are protected and kept safe. I’m confident that the Detroit Police Department will get these kits to where they are most needed.
