Thirty-nine women former residents of nine shelters entrusted us with the wealth of their life experiences in interviews between March and September 2019. The retelling of painful experiences leading up to their taking shelter was not easy, yet the women were willing to share their experiences, and for this we are truly appreciative and grateful.
