STOP DOMESTIC VIOLENCE WORLDWIDE

I would like to challenge my community and the world to help us stop being afraid and work toward building a safer and a much better environment for Victims of Domestic Violence. We shouldn't witness our mothers, sisters, aunts, grandmothers and friends become victims of abuse. Everyone wants to be loved, but “LOVE” should not hurt anyone. We have to uplift each other in our society and be stronger advocates. In order to make a change we must come together to be effective. I know we can make a difference worldwide.

Why is this important?

My Name is Jacqueline Rowe and I am a SURVIVOR, and now a strong THRIVER. Far too many families are being affected mentally and physically by the hands of domestic violence and as a large result we are losing more children by the seconds from this crime called Domestic Violence.
