Jennifer was a newcomer to Edmonton and left her extremely abusive husband with nothing but the clothes on her back. The Lives on the Line program provided her with a cell phone and talk and text minutes, so she could connect with service providers, friends and her support system. After her husband found her, Jennifer was able to use her Lives on the Line phone to contact police. Because of a phone, she escaped a physical assault. Because of a phone, she had a lifeline to safety
Lara had been in an abusive relationship for many years. Living with chronic pain, Lara was unable to take public transportation to the Today Centre. The Safety in Motion program allowed a taxi to be used so she could access services at the Today Centre. Having transportation to get the help she needed, Lara has accessed resources to become independent enough to leave her abusive relationship. She is now living a life free from family violence. Meeting her transportation needs gave Lara access to safety.
