Kris, 25 years old, CA

Kris is a survivor in every sense of the word. After leaving an abusive relationship, she faced homelessness and even lost custody of her son. But she never gave up. Now, she’s moving into her very own apartment — her first stable home in years — and she recently regained partial custody of her son. Kris is learning English, training for a new job, and working hard to build a life where she and her son can be safe, together, and at peace.
