Abuse doesn't give anyone ownership of your future. A VAWA self-petition lets qualifying survivors seek immigration relief without the abuser's signature. We build the case with care.

Happy birthday to the Violence Against Women Act (#VAWA)!
VAWA was the first federal legislation acknowledging domestic violence and sexual assault as crimes and providing federal resources.

The “Violence Against Women Act of 1994 is a United States federal law (Title IV of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, H.R. 3355) signed by President Bill Clinton on September 13, 1994.” 32 yrs later there’s more that must be done #VAWA @democrats-judiciary.house.gov @democrats.org
