I was referred to Tabula Rasa Domestic Violence, Inc by a woman in a restaurant who knew I needed help. I called and immediately, went through the screening, intake, and they found me and my daughter a shelter. We went through their Life After Trauma program after leaving the shelter. I learned so much from this program. Words can’t describe how excited my daughter and I was when I informed Ms. Ross we were moving into our place. She coordinated with my landlord to bring the furniture to my new place. I thought we were just getting furniture but to my surprise, they had my place looking like a page out of a magazine. I had nothing and now a home looking like I had been there for years with every thing peaceful and comfortable. Bedrooms, kitchen, living room, bathroom, everything you could think you needed they provided. I walked in and couldn’t believe my eyes and cried. They filled our cabinets and refrigerator with food. We had Christmas presents and more. I am crying writing this.
