After leaving a 6½-year abusive marriage and moving back to my home-town in St. Petersburg, FL, I found myself without a real support system.
Getting out was already one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, but trying to rebuild with no family or friends to lean on made it even harder. I don’t remember the exact moment Reach Out Speak Out came into our lives, but I do remember the tears I cried when they did—I finally felt seen, cared for, and supported.
