Volunteer Anne Catila Inspires at Women’s Transitional Care Services
Anne Catila has volunteered with Women’s Transitional Care Services in Lawrence for over a year. She co leads a crisis-support group, answers the crisis line, chats with residents, and even cleans and shops. She recalls a four hour shift where residents relaxed with popcorn and games, calling the experience homelike and uplifting. Catila, a 23 year old teaching assistant and KU math grad student, says WTCS helps battered women gain independence and find healthier relationships. Pam Comstock, WTCS volunteer coordinator, praises Anne as a strong asset whose support reaches both women and children around the clock.
