Personal care is something we often take for granted, but imagine if you couldn’t afford basic hygiene products like menstrual supplies, shampoo or toothpaste. For many survivors of domestic violence, this is a harsh reality as government assistance programs don’t cover essential hygiene items and this lack of access has a significant impact on their ability to rebuild their life.
-
In recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, host Jamie Truman speaks to founder of the Personal Care Foundation, Carol Freitas. Her personal experience fueled her passion to provide these basic items to women, men and children, but their efforts go beyond the physical — these products not only keep those in need clean and healthy, but help improve their mental health and employability.

What impact does the absence of a father have on children and society at large? Join me, Jamie Truman, as we explore this critical issue on a heartfelt Father's Day episode of the Truman Charities podcast.
We celebrate the incredible role fathers play, starting with a tribute to my husband and co-founder, Jerry Truman, whose small charity event 15 years ago set the wheels in motion for our organization.
