Samantha* started life in Samoa as one of 10 children. A childhood filled with trauma – emotional, physical and sexual abuse, separation from her parents, constantly moving and never having a home to call her own – set the pattern of vulnerability that has dogged her life. A hand up from Vinnies at just the right time has turned Samantha’s life around and she and her children now have a bright future ahead of them. Samantha* started life in Samoa as one of 10 children.
