Life After Abuse is a platform dedicated to stopping the cycle of abuse and sexual assault that is so prevalent in the US today. The platform is intended to serve as a 360-degree resource for victims and those who love and care for them. Although abuse is happening in every segment of our society, this platform will pay special attention to the needs of young women and women of color. This platform has been created by Dr. Lisa Johnson Pratt, the mother of two daughters affected by sexual assault and emotional abuse. Dr. Johnson Pratt, is a physician and coach. She has decades of marketing and research experience, which she is now using to help stop this epidemic of violence against women.Design, Art and Logo: Miranda Pratt, Editor: Justin Boswick, Music: David Ross Lawn
