Finanical Help for Women in Abusive Relationships

A web of crisscrossing factors can trap women in abusive relationships. Economic dependence often is a powerful barrier to escape: if she leaves, how will she provide for herself and her children? The prospect of pursuing an education or employment while navigating a treacherous transition is daunting – if not overwhelming.

That’s why many social service agencies take a holistic approach to helping women get out of dangerous relationships and living situations. Many successful programs blend job skills, economic education, counseling, and practical help for everyday living to provide a complete context for building a new life. Supported by foundations, faith organizations and community groups, these agencies and services often offer financial help for lifesaving transitions.
