SS23-33. Victoria Coure Smiles Couragously


Supporting the Supporters with Sara Troy and her guest Victoria Coure, on air from August 15th

Victoria has faced numerous challenges and adversities throughout her life, enduring countless downs, unimaginable abuse, and persistent neglect. Despite the seemingly insurmountable obstacles that have been thrown her way, she has remained resilient and determined to create a better world for herself and others.

From enduring physical beatings that left her body battered and broken, to having electronic devices implanted to help her function, Victoria’s journey has been nothing short of a testament to the strength of the human spirit. What makes her story even more incredible is the fact that her daughter, was disabled as a result of the intense beating by her father before she was even born, has become a symbol of unwavering love and resilience.

But Victoria’s impact extends far beyond her own personal struggles. In fact, she has managed to transform her experiences into a powerful platform that inspires, impresses, and supports the lives of those who feel isolated and alone. Through her words, actions, and unwavering determination, she has become a beacon of hope for countless individuals who find themselves in similarly dire circumstances.

Through her platforms, Victoria shares her story, offering insights into how she overcame adversity and found strength in the face of unimaginable challenges. She provides practical advice, empowering others to take control of their lives and rise above their own hardships. Whether it’s through motivational speaking engagements, writing books, or connecting with individuals via social media, Victoria has developed a substantial following of individuals who look to her for guidance and inspiration.

In a world that often seems filled with despair and darkness, Victoria’s story reminds us all that even in the face of immense adversity, there is always hope. Her resilience, determination, and unwavering spirit serve as a shining example of what can be achieved when one refuses to let their circumstances define them.

So, the next time you find yourself facing a seemingly insurmountable challenge, remember Victoria’s story. Remember that within every setback lies an opportunity for growth, and within every struggle lies the potential for triumph. Let Victoria’s journey be a testament to the power of the human spirit and a reminder that you too have the strength to overcome whatever obstacles come your way.

Victoria Cuore, of A Contagious Smile has been supporting families with both special needs as well as survivors of domestic violence for well over 16 years now. As a special needs parent, a survivor of domestic violence, and being special needs myself, I understand first-hand just how challenging it was and still is to be able to find the assistance that you need. This is a place where there is no judgment, no bullying and you get to be YOU! We offer support groups, social groups, classes, legal preparation, and much more. Finally, a place where you can be amongst lifelong friends, who understand exactly who and where you are because each and every one of us has been there or is still there. We believe in having fun, learning with laughter, and supporting one another’s dreams.

Victoria is a part of our Forgoteen Children series and has contributed a chapter called “Alex’s Wheelchair Adventures: A Journey of Furry Friendship and Triumph” speaking to bullying and a feeling of fear loss and truimph.

I invite you to come and hear her many stories of courage and strength that now liberates others in a path of recovery.

SS22-23. Michael Solomon, Fur-Ever Supporter


Supporting the Supporters with Sara Troy and her guest Michael Solomon, on air from June 7th

Along with a long strategic career in both the Air Force and Law Enforcement spanning over almost 15 years, Michael is perfect for helping our Vets and other survivors feel both safe and protected. He offers tips on safety and how to be aware of your surroundings. Michael can also assist you in what to expect when and if you have to appear in court (however he cannot provide any legal advice). Michael is very easy-going, patient, laid back and trustworthy. He has been there to assist his wife in her recovery from being a domestic violence victim to a thriving survivor. When he is not working, he loves to spend time with his wife, Victoria and their three kids. Michael also enjoys fishing, hunting, woodworking, as well as paying it forward in assisting special needs families being that he and Victoria also have a daughter who has special needs. President and Security Advisor.

Giving is not just about making a donation. It is about making a difference.

We are currently in the process of building a kennel system so that we can begin breeding our beautiful golden retriever support dogs. We have been doing all of this plus everything you see on our website out of our own pockets. When we do charge for say some of the classes, we do it for what we pay for the materials. Here soon we will have to take on the expenses of more vet bills, dog food, and so much more. Michael knows first hand how impactful a dog can be, being a Vet who has his own P.S.T.D. he used to wake up with shadows coming through the walls cause him to go for his gun, now with a dog sleeping with him, he no longer has those nightmares.

A dog can sense the pain, anguish, the anxiety the health needs and the fear and more, and with their undying love, they are there for us in a way like no one else can be, so support Michael with his program to get dogs to those in need so they can help those with life challenges navigate life more easily.
