There is no tool for development more effective than the empowerment of women. The purpose of this resource book Letting Our Power Glow is to enable and afford shelter residents the opportunity to grow emotionally and psychologically while simultaneously living in an environment safe from intimate partner violence so that the shelter residents are able to plan and prepare themselves for their lives after the shelter experience. The exercises in the manual are also aimed at inspiring women to develop a greater understanding of themselves through introspection and thereby creating a more profound process of change.
