Every October, Domestic Violence Awareness Month calls attention to the issue of domestic violence, which affects nearly a third of women.
Domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behavior in any relationship that is used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another intimate partner. Domestic violence can result in physical injury, psychological trauma, and even death. The devastating consequences can cross generations and last a lifetime.
In preparation for Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we’ve put together a few of our favorite resources on the topic.
