Thriving Now – Recap

A Conversation on domestic violence

On April 5th, 2023, YWCA Spokane hosted a conversation on domestic violence with Askia Underwood, a domestic violence survivor recently featured in Uncovered: The Secrets We Hide. Watch Askia’s story Hier.

Thriving Now is a powerful first-hand account of how domestic violence can turn someone’s world upside down. A self-described optimist, Askia’s tenacity and ability to make a plan and fight for the future she deserved, helped her reach a place of thriving. Join Jemma Riedel-Johnson (Community Engagement Coordinator) and Caroline Mark (CSO Advocate & Prevention Specialist) for this important conversation.
