Standing Together is a powerful expression of women's collective and individual strength. It is a collection of personal stories from women who have suffered the horrors of violence and abuse and have made the hardest decision: to stand up, to choose life, to take control, to walk out of the darkness. The disturbing, compelling and inspiring stories were written by women of all ages, professions and ethnicities, from all social and economic backgrounds. Taken together, they form a greater story of hope and inspiration.
