One liner to remember for the weekend: Violence is not a "private matter" or a "family affair" it is a CRIME and until it's reported as such within the system and the media, women and men will continue to be beaten and die behind the closed doors in America.

Author's Personal Message:
If you are in an abusive relationship, I want you to know that you are not alone. You can get help. You can find protection. And you can be treated with respect, honor, and care. I hope someday soon you will realize the truth and that you will seek help.
One of my favorite quotes I would like you to remember is by Eleanor Roosevelt who once said: "No one can disrespect you unless you allow it. Don't ever allow it."
Another Search for Shelter is Jeannie Claire's miraculous journey from victim in an abusive marriage to survivor. A successful media professional, Jeannie Claire, escaped her abusive husband; found refuge in one of the toughest and most dangerous homeless shelters in Iowa; divorced her perpetrator; and traveled 2,000 miles to begin her life over in California. Written in Jeannie Claire's trademark candid writing style, Another Search for Shelter also includes advice for victims of domestic violence and resources to get help. In addition, there is a chapter for therapists offering tips on successfully counseling domestic violence victims. In addition domestic violence victims, Another Search for Shelter should be required reading for therapists and students of counseling that often need a better understanding of the dynamics of domestic violence in their practice and studies.
