Refuge, the largest domestic violence organization in the United Kingdom opened the first battered women's shelter in West London in 1971. Their goal is a world where women and children can live safely and free of fear. Over the years, the agency has been assisted by such high profile supporters as Princess Diana, who helped raised the profile of the agency by her support in the 90's to Sir. Patrick Stewart, the charity's patron, who witnessed his own mother's abuse as a child.

Is there an underground railroad for battered women if so how does one make contact in Michigan?

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. Here is the link for 'Underground Railroad, Inc.' You can contact them once you have clicked on the link. http://www.undergroundrailroadinc.org/history.html
