This award-winning chef isn't just delivering home-cooked meals - she's delivering hope to domestic abuse survivors who need a fresh start.
For the women who work at Lena's Asian Kitchen, it's much more than just a job - it's a second chance at a brighter future.
"I provide jobs for domestic abuse survivors, which I am one of them," said Chef Lena Le, owner of Lena's Asian Kitchen. "I feel like a lot of survivors, they feel like they are alone, and so that's why I really want to spread awareness of domestic abuse." "Even when I think, ok, maybe I can't, I just keep going," said Jewel Miller, who works as a pastry chef. "Lena is always supportive and she's always trying to encourage me that I can, I can do it."
