A Message from Ovie:

Domestic violence touches every corner of every city, and affects women from all walks of life. It could affect someone you love and care for - your sister, your mother, your daughter, your grandchild. I am a believer that women should be treated with both love and respect, and that children deserve to grow in a positive, healthy, caring environment.

As an Atlanta Falcon, I am absolutely committed to making a difference within my local community. I fully support and applaud Jaden's Ladders' efforts in breaking the cycle of domestic violence in and around the Atlanta area, as well as in Boston where I was born. Their program helps survivors get back on their feet, gain strength, and make positive choices that enable future security and happiness. I hope with my support, Jaden's Ladder will continue to help those women and children affected by domestic violence.
