Laura's March 2008's goal is to raise money for two special projects:

One is to create and implement Laura's Room, a library/conference room in the Women's Rape Crisis Center's new headquarters.  Here, survivors of sexual assault and their children can receive counseling and support services in a safe and welcoming space. 

The second is to purchase additional Laura's Kits for Women Helping Battered Women so that its child advocacy program can include even more of Chittenden County's elementary schools.  These kits contain books, games, and art projects that help children affected by domestic violence learn to cope and express themselves in appropriate and constructive ways.  By using language and techniques appealling to children, this intervention can help end the insidious cycle of abuse that is often the result.
