Domestic abuse has been in the news a lot lately, and the attention brings awareness to an issue I feel very strongly about. Abuse takes many forms, and you don’t have to have a black eye to be a victim. I encourage everyone to learn more about abuse, because the fact is, at some point we will all know someone in an abusive relationship. For more information, please visit the resources below:
National Coalition Against Domestic Violence
The National Network to End Domestic Violence
National Online Resource Center on Violence Against Women
RAINN (Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network)
The National Sexual Violence Resource Center
Family Violence Prevention Fund
The National Domestic Violence Hotline is 1-800-799-SAFE (7233)
Thank you,
