Domestic Violence

Protecting Your Safety and Rights

Domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behavior used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another partner in an intimate relationship. This can take many forms, including physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, or financial abuse. Domestic violence affects individuals of all ages, genders, and backgrounds and can have serious, long-lasting impacts on victims.
