Published October 29, 2021 at 1440 × 960 in She ran from an abusive relationship. Now she’s homeless
"Elizabeth took her daughter one Saturday and left her abusive partner of the last 13 years. She finally decided, she said, that it was wrong to have to get permission from him to visit her parents, or to go to the store or the bank. But that was at the end of June, and being on disability with a fixed income of $560 a month, she's now homeless." SUZANNE KREITER/GLOBE STAFF
