The Gloria Foundation wants everyone to know how rampant this issue is and that it's not just physical abuse. Domestic abuse is everywhere. Arakelian explained, "There's a lot of places that can help people now. When my mother was going through it there was nothing. There was no help for her but now, thankfully there is. We have organizations like Jersey Battered Women's Service that have an unbelievable program where they walk victims from the court to the Morris Family Justice Center and into safe houses to get completely out of danger, allowing them to take care of themselves to get their self-esteem back. They do everything from counseling and child care to legal work. They have a team of attorneys that are pro bono and will do this work for women. We need to support the organizations that help and people need to know. The awareness is what we're about." For more information, or to donate, visit www.thegloriafoundation.org. Jane Hanson, founder of Partners for Women and Justice, Robin Wilson and Karen Arakelian. Whether you're looking for traditional, contemporary, casual, or classic, our gracious staff will help you choose pieces that reflect your individual sensibility.
