Her search for that love led her into the first of many situations that would shape her life and, ultimately, her destiny.
Robin became the victim of what is known as domestic violence, becoming entangled for many years until the shackles were broken. She determined she could not allow herself or anyone else to suffer the humiliation and sense of powerlessness that comes with being a victim of domestic violence.
She began to pray, to plan, and to design what is now The Exodus Foundation, Inc. The Exodus Foundation, Inc., a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation, was envisioned in 2003 and manifested in 2010. Throughout the seven years prior to the organization’s inception, Ms. Cooper engaged in extensive research on domestic violence. During this time, she interviewed numerous victims, survivors, law enforcement officials, and experts in her quest to acquire the knowledge, information, and resources necessary to bring public awareness and prevention to domestic abuse.
As a survivor of domestic violence, and Founder/CEO of The Exodus Foundation, Inc., Ms. Robin L. Cooper has a strong passion to assist those who are affected by this widespread epidemic. Going above and beyond the call of duty to assist victims and survivors, her passion, drive, and dedication define her strong values. She holds steadfast and is diligent in the crusade to eradicate domestic violence. She penned the phrase “Can We End Domestic Violence? Together, YES WE CAN!” This phrase has since become The Exodus Foundation, Inc.'s slogan.
In 2009, graduating cum laude, she received her Bachelor of Science degree in Bible and Theology from Crichton College, currently known as Victory University, in Memphis, TN. While pursuing her undergraduate degree, she zealously began to share her acquired knowledge with others. Upon completion of her studies, she did not rest on her laurels and consider her journey complete; rather, she had a vision of an organization designed to help others come out of the hell through which she personally walked for nearly two decades. She is currently pursuing her Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling.view less
