After seeing her grandmother live in and deal with domestic abuse daily she knew at a young age that something had to change. Cathlene’s parents broke the cycle and she feels blessed to have seen firsthand what healthy relationships look like.
Cathlene is dedicated to spreading the message of hope and raising awareness that Abuse of any kind is NOT OK and that there is help and support globally. The more adults we can get to safety the fewer children that have to grow up in abusive homes.
