True Equality Network’s infiltrations and investigations into court houses, prior domestic violence cases, domestic violence coalitions, prisoner torture, abuse shelters, and Legal Services Corporation and their grantees have brought many egregious abuses into public view.

Some of the research has been revealed in Terri Tersak’s articles “Congressional Guidelines For Abusing Women“, and “How the Failures Of Welfare Reform Created Our lawless Courts” (Co-authored by David Heleniak and Terri Stoddard). Much good will come from this in the future as we reform America’s domestic violence and other family laws.

These research projects come with operating costs well beyond what the leadership can afford out of its own pockets. True Equality has some urgent legal fees to cover for filings and legal assistance. In order to move to the next step of action it needs donations to cover costs quickly.

Within the next two weeks True Equality needs to raise a total of $1,800.00. The first set of fees are due this coming Monday, May 12, 2008, and amount to $350.00.

For the record, readers should know that I am not paid for any of my work or writing for True Equality Network. In fact, I donate both my time and money to their effort.
