Jennifer Baringer

Jennifer Baringer

is a survivor of domestic violence. This is not a blog about revenge, anger or animosity. This is a call for those caught up in abuse to find the power to get out. This is a call for others to open their eyes and see what is around them. A call to be your sisters keeper and become aware of the signs of abuse and to be the love and inspiration a victim needs to move forward and become a survivor.

This is also a place for single parents to find hope, healing, and encouragement in their journey.

A South Floridian for as long as she can remember, Jennifer studied elementary and learning disability education at Palm Beach Atlantic University and enjoyed a career as a mom, public school substitute teacher and educational specialist for Florida Power & Light.

Jennifer now writes and enjoys traveling with her husband, Russ, one large dog and one fat cat, by sea on their sailboat, or on land in their camper.

Together, they have four grown children and eight grandchildren. Home is any place they stop for the night.
