The Survivor's Talking Points™ to Use With Law Enforcement Officers by Kaitlyn Jorgensen available here. This resource is pay-what-you-can.

For Protective Moms and Victim-Survivors, interactions with Law Enforcement Officers can often mirror the interactions that they have with their Abuser. For Victim-Survivors/Protective Moms, specifically, seeking Law Enforcement Intervention can elicit feelings of fear, shame and panic.

Many Victim-Survivors respond to Law Enforcement Contact with feelings of apprehension, overwhelm and confusion. After all, these are interactions none of us are taught to prepare for.

This pay-what-you-can, downloadable list includes small action steps that can mitigate these feelings and risk-factors. As a Protective Mom, preparing for Law Enforcement Interaction is vitally important.

The Survivor's Talking Points™ for Proactive Protective Moms - Describing Coercive & Abusive Parenting by Kaitlyn Jorgensen available here.

These Talking Points describe Abusive & Coercive Parenting. Coercive & Abusive Fathers all say and do the same things, so I have created a brief list of generic Talking Points that will permit you to address many of their misdeeds in a uniformed, condensed manner.

I hope that these Talking Points will assist you in securing your performance and in gaining clarity. I also hope that this list will give you a foundation to build off of, and the capability to draw attention to where it should be; with your Abuser, The Perpetrating Father.
