The 'underground railroad' title is often misunderstood. During slavery there was an actual underground railroad to bring blacks into Canada or to other States. The term 'Underground Railroad' for battered women means there is a retreat for battered women and their children to go too to be protected; given support and free legal counsel. In Michigan for years there was no retreat for battered women or children to go and a 'safe house' was inspired to house well over 750 women during the 1980's and over 1,000 children.

Yes I have opened my home to battered and homeless women. I attempted to open a battered shelter for women and children. I am having some difficulty. each time I attempted I run into another obstacle, however, many women that have stayed with me are now doing well or in a SAFE House. There is no greater feeling to give back what someone once did for me... God loves us and He placed people in my life when I was terribly afraid and felt all alone now I attempt to do the same and someday I will have my SAF_"E" House... Thank you Sue
