“There were many problems in my family. My husband was being abusive towards me. I knew nothing about the law in Canada. I knew nothing about Canada. When I went to VLMFSS I received a tremendous amount of help. The workers here assist women with lots of love [and] affection especially under situations when women are going through difficult times in their lives. Whenever I go there, I talk to them, I feel I am one of them. Then I don’t feel alone.”
