Lonnie & Jordan’s Story

The life-saving work that Women Against Abuse achieves each day would not be possible without the support of advocates in the community. This past year, the agency’s partnership with Drexel University raised awareness to relationship violence among college students through the second annual iPledge Campaign.

Georgina O’Hara’s Story

Volunteers make up a crucial component of the Women Against Abuse community. Pro bono representation provided by local law firms, for example, makes a meaningful difference for the thousands of clients seeking help at the Legal Center. Since Women Against Abuse staff cannot meet the high demand for representation, pro bono attorneys like Georgina O’Hara of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, LLP, play a vital volunteer role.
