HOUSTON — October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a time to shed light on an issue that often remains hidden behind closed doors. The term "awareness" is crucial, as it signifies the need to speak out and break the silence surrounding domestic violence.
One powerful voice in this conversation is Sabrina Greenlee, a survivor who transformed her pain into purpose. In her new book, "Grant Me Vision: A Journey of Family, Faith, and Forgiveness", Sabrina shares her harrowing experiences, including surviving multiple violent relationships and a near-fatal incident that left her blind.
Born to teenage parents with limited emotional skills, Sabrina faced a challenging start to life. Yet, her story is one of resilience and determination. She has not only overcome her past but has also become the parent she desperately needed as a child. Sabrina has raised four confident children, including former Houston Texans NFL player DeAndre Hopkins.
Sabrina's message is clear: there is hope for those currently in violent relationships. Through her journey, she aims to inspire others to recognize their worth and find the strength to leave toxic situations. This October, as we observe Domestic Violence Awareness Month, let's honor survivors like Sabrina and support those still struggling to break free.
