My Story – Amanda

I’ve searched for a domestic violence program and been turned away for 4 years. There no room anywhere for me. So I stayed with a man who abused me in so many different ways. I ended up getting in trouble for throwing kitty litter all over our living room. He new I was fed up and he filed a false police report and lied about various things. I ended up in jail and then house arrest for something I didn’t do. I’m fighting back and taking it to trial. It’s made me homeless and helpless. The more I tried to get help and go to law enforcement the worse it got. Nobody should ever have no where to turn. No help and homeless.
