Survive, Revive, Thrive
Vanessa, a Fort Bend Women's Center Case Manager, sat down at her desk with her newest client, Sandra (not her real name), slumped in her chair, staring at the floor, unable to make eye contact.
"Tell me what's going on, Vanessa gently prompted."Well I just don't know what to do. Things have always been bad with my husband, but this past year..." Sandra's voice dropped off.
"It's going to be okay. You are here' We're going to get you the help you need."
Vanessa walked her through her options, made a safety plan with her, gave her resources and information. Most importantly, she got her into counseling in FBWC's non-residential program. This program helps survivors at any stage of their journey. Sandra had started on hers.
