She stayed in touch with ALIVE staff through the harrowing legal process that followed, getting assistance and advice during her divorce and custody hearings.

Ward now serves on ALIVE’s board of directors and speaks about the organization to groups throughout the area, sharing her story. She has also sheltered victims in her own home. “Domestic violence knows no bounds in terms of socioeconomic status, race or religion,” she says. “Instead of judging others, we need to reach out to help them.

ALIVE can help give people the strength to get out.”
