Domestic Violence & Abuse
​STATISTICS


On average, 24 people per minute are victims of rape, physical violence or stalking by an intimate partner in the United States — more than 12 million women and men over the course of a year. Most female victims of intimate partner violence were previously victimized by the same offender, including 77% of females ages 18 to 24, 76% of females ages 25 to 34, and 81% of females ages 35 to 49​.

THOUGHTS

Nobody can truly love someone else until they can love themselves.​
Picture

FEAR

You must face the fears, erase them with plans, and step forward believing you are doing the right thing for you.​

HURT

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.​ 
Domestic violence (also called intimate partner violence (IPV), domestic abuse or relationship abuse) is a pattern of behaviors used by one partner to maintain power and control over another partner in an intimate relationship.​

OUR GOAL

Our goal is to provide a safe place for women and children to learn more about self sufficiency. We will bring awareness to this plague of Domestic Violence & Abuse that has impacted so many women and children.
​

First Let's

Educate
"Domestic violence is any behavior involving physical, psychological, emotional, sexual or verbal abuse. It is any form of aggression intended to hurt, damage, or kill an intimate person".     
Asa Don Brown

Now let's WORK

Expose
"Nobody believes that domestic violence kills and nobody believes it is detrimental to children. This world has got to wake up. To me, if there is domestic violence, if the children see it or hear it, that to me is detrimental. Batterers should not have rights to children".
Denise Brown​

IT'S UP TO US

Exchange
"No woman has to be a victim of physical abuse. Women have to feel like they are not alone".
Salma Hayek​
