1. There is hope to be able to get out of abusive relationships (no matter the abuse)

2. Abuse happens we can't hide from it anymore. Here are the facts: 1 in 4 women are abused. That is a quarter of the women in the US. Every Mass shooting in the US has Domestic Violence as the common denominator--not mental illness. Nearly 10 billion dollars are lost each year to DV. We MUST Speak up!

How can we help you Grow?

“We are doing a 10 for 10,000 campaign from now till the end of the year.” —April T Giauque

“We need to sell 10,000 books by Dec 31st, 2019. Why? My book Pinpoints of Light is in the hands of a screenwriter and we going big. We want Ron Howard to direct the movie because he understands how to visually capture the mental illness and the abuse factors that are the root of the problem in my personal story. Selling that many books will help the word to get out and make the movie a reality!”—April T Giauque

Mental illness. Addiction. Pain. Fear. Control. Abuse. What images do those words stir in your mind's eye? For me, those words paint a darkening abyss filled with millions of gallons of heaviness, guilt, and duty trapping me in tangible darkness. My former spouse could not see us or find us because he was locked away in his own mind of mental illness, then became trapped by substance abuse, and would strike out in forms of domestic violence. He had suffered painful experiences in his childhood, and that pain warped and twisted his mind and awakened the genetic mental illness that runs in his family. I share the stories as he told them to me: sometimes during drunken depressed states and other times with sober clarity, to give background. I describe abuse in two ways: the hunter and the caged animal. Both ultimately have control as the foundation. His mental illness was awakened from his pain, and as stress was added to it, he needed to control everything. How? As a caged animal strikes out at anyone to free itself; others are damaged in that process. Read More
