Our founders lived experience! (her impact statement)

5/9/2023

The following is my Impact Statement and summary of my lived experience that inspired my founding of Right to Protect. I have redacted identifying information to protect myself, but all details herein are absolutely factual. I read my Impact Statement in open court and the printed copy that I read from was given to the Deputy District Attorney to include in the case file. My reasons for sharing here are no different from my reasons for making my Impact Statement in open court, listed in the bullet points below. I hope you are blessed by reading what I wrote.

If you are being abused, know that there is hope.
