We are creating the best app in the world to support those of you who are struggling to stay free from addiction, criminality or abusive relationships and wish to collaborate with one or more sponsors or supportive people. We call it your Road To Freedom Map. It will allow you to connect with your sponsor in getting out of addiction, criminality or an abusive relationship - all three have similar points - you are creating a map to reach a new, safer place. In its base form you simply connect with a sponsor or two and can send an alarm with your location if you need assistance. You can also start logging places that make you feel safe and places you would like to avoid and get notifications sent both to you and your sponsor, to navigate safely. To make it simple you can use voice memo or take a photo, or you can write. We are The Peaceful Heart Network, an NGO working internationally since 2010 to ease suffering and prevent violence, mainly by spreading tools for helping self and others called First Aid Stress & Trauma: F.A.S.T. Let us know how it goes. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
