Reaching out for support
Manage episode 430290273 series 3585099
What does reaching out for help look like for a woman who wants to leave an abusive relationship? In this episode we discuss how that can happen and what supports are available.
This is a frank conversation about what it is like for a woman experiencing domestic violence and the challenges, and barriers, she can face when she decides to leave. Leaving an abusive relationship can be the most dangerous time for a woman, alongside other major challenges like finances and housing. Family and friends play a major role in listening to and supporting survivors on their journey.
With Claudia and Amanda, members of the Outreach team at Meath Women’s Refuge & Support Services, we talk about what supports are available and what the post-separation and recovery period looks like.
