Asian Women's Shelter

Laura is an immigrant mother of two who was their primary caregiver but lost her housing and was separated from her children after years of domestic violence, including legal abuse. Despite these hardships, Laura has shown remarkable strength and resilience, continuing to advocate for herself and work toward reuniting with her children. Her kindness and warm heart truly set her apart. Even in the midst of her own struggles, she has never stopped supporting and helping others in her community in whatever ways she can.

Laura is moving into her own place with the support of a transitional housing program, and this move is a critical step toward stability after experiencing homelessness due to domestic violence. Securing safe and independent housing will allow Laura to focus on her ongoing legal fight, rebuilding her life, and continuing her efforts to reunite with her children. Assistance with moving costs will remove a huge financial barrier, help her establish a stable home environment, and support her journey toward family reunification.
