Providing space for survivors to rediscover their power.

Taking back and rediscovering one’s power is an important step in a survivor’s journey toward healing. An Empower Gift allows WTLC to provide a safe space for survivors to make their own decisions, choices, and mistakes. This autonomy restores them, allows them to pursue dreams and ambitions they put on hold, and assists in strengthening bonds and trust with their children.
