“People come to me for all sorts of reasons, whether it’s violence or ‘I’m out of a job’ or ‘I’m pregnant and don’t know what to do’. The presenters did an amazing job. Sometimes you go to a training and you feel the trainers are talking from on high, but it wasn’t like that at this training. They really set the tone in the beginning for a really comfortable environment where we could be comfortable and ask questions.”
