Annual Campaign

Zach is excited about going home to his three older siblings and his mom, Tina. It will be the first time they will be together in their own home in several years. Three years ago, Zach and his brothers and sister were removed from Tina’s custody and placed in separate foster homes due to their father’s severe and frequent abuse of their mother. Once her children were taken away, Tina had to find the courage and the resources to leave her abuser and build a life in which she and her children would be safe from harm. As Tina worked to gain financial and emotional stability, her husband stalked and terrorized her. He used visits with the children to threaten Tina and at court hearings, he painted a picture of her as an inadequate mother. With the assistance of Legal Advocates for Abused Women, Tina obtained an Order of Protection against her husband and worked with detectives to have stalking charges issued against him. About the advocates who worked with Tina over the years, she states, “It is people like you who let us know there is support and kindness in the world.” This year, Tina’s and Ach's wish has come true… they are all together and safe.
