Sometimes You Need To Reset Your Life
On September 2, 2019 Control Alt Delete was founded to help people escape domestic violence by providing basic immediate needs to bridge the gap toward permanent independence.
With community support, we provide one time assistance such as transportation (cab rides, bus passes, fuel), temporary lodging, home security and lock change assistance, and a basic immediate needs bin (hygiene and other necessities) in order to remove the barriers that keep people in unsafe environments.

Creating a society of survivors
I can let my fears strangle me or him.
Abuse was something I never experienced before. I kept thinking, “how did my life end up like this?” Everybody loves him and no one believed me.
I couldn’t come up with another excuse at the hospital for the bruises and broken bones. I knew he would be furious I left but I will never go back.
“You helped us when no one else would.”
We have been walking on thin ice with the fear of it cracking and falling thru. We have drowned from the icy terror of our life with him.
I’m in a storm and I never can guess if it will blow by or if I will get pummeled by a tornado.
It’s like stepping on egg shells and never knowing if they will crack or slice you open.
I’m not crazy – I am abused. He didn’t hit me so I didn’t think it was abuse. Words are painful weapons.
Thank you she informed that she received and was very ecstatic to have it , thank you for all the assistance you provide!
Never again. I am stronger than he believed me to be.
We here at ACESDV really appreciate the assistance that your organization give survivors of domestic violence. I was on the phone with the survivor and she was so emotional about receiving the voucher because she had no where to go.
Never again. I am stronger than he believed me to be.
Every day we’ve been balancing on a thin wire while he jumps up and down on it.
I couldn’t afford to leave and I was too embarrassed to ask for help. He controlled everything in my life including money.
I always thought abuse was bruises and broken bones. Fear kept me there, then fear made us escape.
