Another organization that is worth contacting and staying in touch with, and actually joining, is The Protective Mother's Alliance International. This is an organization which is cofounded and directed by Janice Levinson and Lundy Bancroft and can be found online at:
The Protective Mother's Alliance is an organization that works towards reforming the family court system on behalf of protective mothers and their children.
It does so by working on changing legislation, on educating the public and the media, and following through on whatever other approaches are effective.
Not only is it available to support protective mothers and assist them in keeping themselves and their children safe from abusers,it works on teaching those mothers to advocate for themselves as well as their children. The Alliance also works to stop abusers from getting custody of their children.
Finally, the Protective Mother's Alliance tries to prevent protective mothers from being labeled parental alienators when they try to protect their children from abuse, and it speaks out against the misuse of psychological tests which are often used to deny mothers custody. Even more important, the organization fights against the way in which protective mothers in family court are forced to spend excessive amounts of money on extensive litigation, etc.
So, check out their website. They recommend very interesting articles and books which may be useful to you in fighting your legal battle successfully, in learning to understand that others have also suffered very similar abuse, which is validating, and in sustaining your momentum emotionally. The more allies you have the better, and the Protective Mother's Alliance is your natural ally--trust me.
