Christy DiMaggio with Boyd and Lucinda

Christy DiMaggio is a Domestic Violence Survivor and the Founder of I am R.A.W. Raising Awareness for Women... a fledgeling domestic violence victims advocacy group in Phoenix Arizona. Our goal is to help victims change their lives for the better, by empowering them to take a stand against their abusers. There are so many women in this world who are abused every day by their partners. Most women who are caught in this precarious situation endure the abuse silently, so the cycle of violence continues unhindered by social norms and legal recourse. I AM R.A.W aims to break the cycle of violence once and for all with a full fledged outreach and impact video campaign. These videos will be shown to victims, families, trial lawyers and the abusers, to raise awareness, empower and garner support for victims everywhere.
