Domestic violence is a national epidemic that affects not only individuals in your community but in our society as a whole. The results of this abuse can last through generations and destroy the lives of everyone involved. Together we must recognize that domestic violence is not a private family matter but a public health issue.
You can make a difference by donating your time or money to a number of worthy organizations who are working to end domestic violence and many shelters designed to support the victims of this abuse.
