Many battered women experience difficulties accessing resources due to specific cultural or language barriers. The high rates of domestic violence in the lives of impoverished women, along with higher rates of physical and mental health problems, mean that economically disadvantaged women are likely to have more complex needs than those who have more resources. At Life Source Consultants, specialized programs, outreach and prevention services have been developed and are now readily available for women of color, women in recovery from drugs and alcohol, women who have been incarcerated, women who are mentally challenged, and women age 50 and over. These specialized programs gives victims the resources, opportunities and courage to change their lives for the better (Crisis Intervention, Therapy, Case Management with follow-up, Personal and Legal Advocacy, Safety Planning, Support Groups, Christian Counseling upon request, Resources and Referrals).
