I am not yet sure. I am interested in helping build strong families, the mission of the program. I understand the cycle of abuse and imbalance of power that underlies it with regards to children and the elderly. I have helped a couple of friends that have ben caught in it, the best I could. I helped myself out of an emotionally and then physically abusive marriage 16 years ago. It is an interest of mine to help and to learn to teach and prevent.
