ABOVE ABUSE:
The underlying aim of Involved's Above Abuse program is to facilitate the transition of abuse victims from a state of being passive "VICTIMs" trapped within the relentless cycle of abuse, into individuals capable of transcending the negative and emotionally debilitating aspects associated with such experiences. This transformation is achieved through the utilization of an acronym approach that unravels the deep-seated emotional issues of the abuser, ultimately empowering the survivors by restoring the "POWER" of control to their own hands. In order to foster a sense of hope and inspiration, the program involves candid discussions centered around the real-life success story of the esteemed author, Teresa Collins. In her poignant memoir titled "When Abuse Is All You Know," she fearlessly shares her personal journey, guiding the readers through a vivid narrative of her painful past and meticulously delineating each step of her liberating exodus towards triumphant emancipation. The fundamental outcome for participants of this program is the cultivation of inner strength and courage, which serve as impetus for breaking free from the chains of abuse. As they embark on this transformative journey, they emerge equipped with the resilience to navigate past abusive experiences and embrace a life characterized by emotional wholeness and victory.
