Judy Pearson | Contributing Writer A 2ND ACT {helping is healing} Control Alt Delete resets the lives of domestic violence survivors LIFE REBOOT L aura Pahules was frustrated. She had been working on the elements to launch her nonprofit but was struggling with a name. And then it happened: Her laptop froze. Praying that her work in progress hadn’t been lost, she reset it, pressing the control, alt and delete keys simultaneously. “That’s when it hit me,” Pahules said. “The perfect name for my organization was Control Alt Delete, because sometimes you have to reset your life.” Resetting lives is an understatement when it comes to the work Control Alt Delete does. Pahules’s days are filled with helping domestic violence survivors escape their situation. While there are many fine organizations that shelter abuse survivors and their children, the survivors need to get away from their abusers in the first place. According to statistics, 99 percent of all domestic violence victims are also financially abused. FRONTDOORS MEDIA | 21 | JAN 2021
