Patrisha is determined to shine a light on domestic violence in Maine and to empower survivors to share their stories through bold campaigns across the state. Patrisha McLean is a dynamic, relentless spirit. In the words of one survivor, “Finding Our Voices has been the best support I have ever had through this entire journey”.
