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:

Safe Horizon

The National Network to End Domestic Violence

Fair Fund

Thank you,
