Review for W.O.M.A.N., Inc. - Women Organized to Make Abuse Non Existent Inc, San Francisco, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

After graduating from grad school, I was looking to enter the non-profit world. I really wanted to work with programs that dealt with domestic violence, having experienced it myself in a past relationship, and witnessing it among relatives of mine. I learned about WOMAN, Inc and contacted them to become a volunteer and it has been a life changing experience. I began by working as an outreach volunteer, helping to bring awareness about domestic violence through presentations to the community. Then I took WOMAN, Inc's 40 hour domestic violence training to becomes a crisis line counselor. WOMAN, Inc is unique in that they work with all survivors regardless of where they are in the relationship. WOMAN, Inc works with the survivor to help them reach their goals in creating lives free of violence. The staff working there are incredibly dedicated to this cause and you couldn't find a more compassionate and hard-working group.
