Hi,
Does anybody have any information about resources for community support
groups or shelters for pregnant and abused women?
I have a friend who is looking for some help for a young woman who
desperately needs support and a place to go. She is Spanish speaking and
alone in Los Angeles,
Thanks,
Peace,
Anna
