From pain to peace

Children's Wisconsin Nov 01, 2022

Melissa will never forget the night she got a knock at the door and learned her daughter was the victim of violence. While she rushed to TiAnna’s side in the hospital and focused on her daughter’s physical health and healing, a team jumped in to help with everything else. Housing, food, safety, mental health, and more — those are all the areas our Project Ujima team can help families with after violence. And that help isn’t just for the victims, but for the entire family.

Hear Melissa and TiAnna’s story, and how our Project Ujima team at Children’s Wisconsin helped their family move from pain to peace. 

 

 
Children's Wisconsin knows kids need healthy families and strong communities to live well. That’s why we develop services and community partnerships designed to support children and families where they live, learn, work and play.  View more articles from Children's Wisconsin
