I have to make this quick. I went to the local Clothesline Project today and read the t-shirts created by women who have survived incest, abuse, rape, stalking, etc. There were even white shirts created in memory of girls and women who have passed away due to violence.
At the end of the display was a table by Planned Parenthood with the opportunity to sign up to be a Rape Crisis Service Volunteer. Immediately, this resonated with me. It is the perfect way for me to get involved with womens' rights and relief efforts for the abused. It will open up doors that I don't know how to open.
I will have to wait to take the course until Nathan and I have relocated, because once I commit, I must fulfill a one-year commitment. I don't want to start something here and not be able to finish it. I am not sure if I would be able to relocate my commitment through a Planned Parenthood in the area that I live in.
