Overcoming Financial Abuse: RI Survivor’s Perspective on LIVE
Thursday, June 21, 2018
Kathy McCormick joined GoLocal News Editor Kate Nagle on GoLocal LIVE to talk about Sisters Overcoming Abusive Relationships (SOAR), a group that works in partnership with the Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence, to talk about financial abuse -- and how to overcome it.
McCormick shared her own story, and how to tell if financial abuse is taking place -- and how to begin to get out of a difficult situation.
SOAR members are hosting "Women Talking Money” events throughout the state to help survivors learn about how to manage their money and help the community better understand financial abuse.
