If you are being battered, the first thing you need to look at is the Resource section to find out how to escape. Therefore, it is Chapter one in this Escape handbook. Look at it! At last there is more help for you if you are disabled and have also been abused! Now there are at least nine shelters in Massachusetts that are fully accessible for battered women who are disabled and their children. There are new shelters becoming increasingly more accessible for disabled battered women. It will be fantastic when there is no longer any need for services such as these, but for now it is good to include as many different kinds of battered women because battering does cross all ages, abilities and disabilities as well as racial and Class Lines. It also crosses both genders.
