episode 56: How we can break the silence. Nenia's story of freeing herself from domestic violence and using her experience to educate others.

[transcript]


Nenia Corcoran has been a police officer for nearly a decade.  In addition to being one of only a few female police officers in her area, Nenia broke the gender barrier by becoming a certified SWAT operator.  She strives to be a positive role model for the younger females in her community.

She became a survivor of a sexual assault while in college. It took her many years to finally cope with this trauma.  She then struggled to end an emotionally abusive marriage to a man she’d known since middle school.

Nenia has made it her mission to reach other women who may be silently suffering in similar situations.   She aims to educate and empower young women to recognize the warning signs of domestic violence and gender-based violence.
