Real Stories of Strength
My life was decided for me through marriage and being sent abroad. I believed my husband would protect and understand me, but when he became violent, I realized I was living in fear. With the help of the South Asian Women Project, I received counseling and support that helped me find my strength again. It was not easy, but I learned that surviving abuse takes courage. Today, I am rebuilding my life and working toward my dreams. I am creating a safe and hopeful future for my son and myself, and I am choosing to live with dignity and self-respect.
I lived in an abusive marriage for years, staying silent because I was afraid of losing my immigration status and my ability to support myself. Finding the South Asian Women Project gave me safety, understanding, and a sense of family, and helped me find the strength to start rebuilding my life.
