On September 7, 2023, Barbara M. delivered 12 quilts to TESSA of Colorado Springs. Christine M. was so happy to receive them.
TESSA was established in 1977 in response to a high rate of calls to local law enforcement from women threatened or assaulted by their partners.
Fundamentally, TESSA does three things:
▪️ Provides immediate safety at their confidential Safehouse for women, children, and other victims escaping abuse.
▪️ Empowers survivors through programs and support such as Advocacy and Counseling
▪️ Creates a safer future through Education and Outreach to schools, businesses and other organizations.
