According to abuse expert Mannette Morgan, survivors need help now more than ever.
The COVID-19 Domestic Crisis.
There has never been a more frightening time for victims of domestic abuse than right now. While staying home can help reduce the spread of COVID-19, this is not the safest option for those who are isolating with an abusive partner. The National Domestic Abuse helpline reported a 25% increase in calls since early March. Not only has the pandemic made it more difficult for people to access help as they are under their abuser’s constant surveillance, but many domestic abuse programs have been forced to reduce their services, because of staff social distancing requirements.
According to abuse expert Mannette Morgan, survivors need help now more than ever.
“The isolation that is supposed to provide us with protection from this awful tragedy makes some more vulnerable to another…”
…says Morgan, who has emerged as a leading voice among abuse survivors and is sharing free resources and tools victims can use to get help, get out, heal and thrive. After 30 years of intense self-work, Morgan overcame her past trauma of emotional, sexual, and physical abuse and today uses her experience to help survivors put their lives back together again.
“As we adapt to change all around us, I encourage victims to flex those changing muscles, be honest with themselves, and gain confidence; now is the perfect time to start a new life…”
…says Morgan, whose ultimate goal is to eradicate the cycle of abuse by healing and educating those who are most likely to fall into the same patterns over and over again. Manette Morgan’s incredible story of survival and recovery is documented in the book Finding Your Voice. Praised for its unique perspective on healing and breaking the cycle of abuse, Morgan speaks to not only survivors but to society-at-large. The book is part memoir, part comprehensive blueprint guide that offers step-by-step strategies, encouraging personal anecdotes, and expert techniques built upon the foundation of years of self-help work, therapy, and Morgan’s own transformative approach to healing.
“The isolation that is supposed to provide us with protection from this awful tragedy makes some more vulnerable to another.“
