Review for Lauras House, Ladera Ranch, CA, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

I left my home with my daughter and cat in tote. I didnt know where I would go or where I would do. A kind woman picked me up and we made numerous calls looking for help. She knew of Lauras House. After a few short interviews I was taken into their shelter and given a place of not only safety from my abuser but from my own inability to understand what had happened. I was given rules and guidelines, I was educated to the cycle of abuse and the signs to look for in any relationship. I was provided a place where I was understood, listened to and provided for; supporting my emotional needs and those slightly less important as far as providing clothes and things such as shampoo and a toothbrush. Things I hadnt thought of taking with me when I left. I thank Lauras House for making me aware of the steps I needed to take enabling me the hope of a peaceful existence. It has been four years since I left - and I still know that counseling services are available for me should I need. That is alot when you are uncertain and expecting your abuser to be released. THank you Lauras House...if it were not for you, I dont know where I would have ended up. :)
