When Gabi* fled her abusive home, her top priority was protecting her children from the trauma they had all suffered. She turned to CVIC for help with protection orders and custody agreements, grateful for the support she found.

But years later, when her middle son—her ex-husband’s favorite—began showing signs of anger and sadness, even talking about suicide, Gabi knew she had to act. To keep the impact of their past from continuing to harm them, she reached out to CVIC immediately, and received the following:

  • All of her children began therapy with CVIC at their schools, where it was easy to access.
  • Gabi began therapy herself, gaining the strength to continue protecting and supporting her children.
  • A chance to break the cycle of violence in their home—rebuilding their future.
