WHAT? Domestic violence stems from one person’s need to control another.
WHO? A man abusing a woman or children, or the reverse, a woman abusing a husband, children or elderly parents. It’s not a matter of income, education, or geography.
HOPE: It is learned behavior, which means it can be unlearned. Batterers can learn how to control themselves rather than others.
Are you the one needing protection? Help is one phone call away.
HELP: If you are in immediate danger, call 9-1-1. For anonymous, confidential help, 24/7, please call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 (SAFE) or 1-800-787-3224 (TTY).
