These Are Our Stories : Women's Stories of Abuse and Survival Paperback / softback

Edited by Jan Rosenberg

Paperback / softback

Description

These Are Our Stories is a collection of women's stories, thoughts, and poems about the domestic abuse they have experienced throughout their lives.

Transcribed directly from Jan Rosenberg's interviews with eleven women in the Florida panhandle, their histories embody the epidemic of domestic violence in America. The eleven survivors are lower to middle class women of various ethnic orientations, and range in age from their late twenties to mid-sixties.

The survivors' stories are clarified with the use of diagrams from The Domestic Abuse Intervention Project (DAIP), and examined as the women re-build their lives hours and days at a time.

These Are Our Stories provides two resource guides following the women's interviews.

The first guide is adapted for use in north Florida to assist an abused woman in identifying her situation using these eleven women's stories as a thread.

The second resource is a brief bibliography of literature and resources for domestic violence victims that can be used throughout the U.S.
