Aureus

(Pron. Ah-ree-us). Hatching the idea to eliminate domestic violence was the easy part. Through several years of trial, research, collaborating, and recalibrating, Foundation4 Domestic Violence Prevention is now Aureus. A few years ago we began understanding that when people talked about their abuse they used phrases like, "if I would have had more confidence I could have left" or "I found out that my self-esteem was so low the only time I felt powerful was when I was controlling my partner." We have a clear understanding that those statements come from lack of self-worth, and that plays a significant role in abuse (abusing or allowing abuse). We believe that everyone needs to understand how precious and priceless they are. To accomplish that, Aureus will take massive action to create a world in which self-worth overcomes domestic violence.
