Thank you for doing what you do. As someone who never knew advocates even existed, I spent most of this summer talking to them as they helped me move on from felony assaults by my ex back in March.

You guys have been one of the only sources of comfort I can go to when everyone else is too afraid to talk about it. They documented my injuries, wrote out my Restraining Order for me, and made sure I never left on an empty stomach.

I get tears in my eyes just thinking about how supportive they all were. I can't imagine it's easy helping victims every day, but what you do is phenomenal.
