Domestic violence should not happen to anybody. Ever. Period. But it does – and when it does, there is help. Maybe you have lived with abuse, maybe it happened just once, maybe you work or live next to someone who is being abused right now. Whoever you are, this site can show you how and where to get help.
ARE YOU A VICTIM OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE?
- Have you ever been shoved, slapped, punched, kicked or hit?
- Have you ever been called names and put down until you felt worthless?
- Have you ever believed them when they said they’d never do it again?
- Are you alone, or alone with children, with no one to call when you need help?
- Do you believe that you deserve to be beaten?
- Are you ashamed that you stay in an abusive relationship?
- Are you isolated from friends and family because of their jealousy?
- Does someone’s threats of violence control your decisions and influence your behavior?
- Are you afraid you can’t make it on your own?
SEXUAL ASSAULT
Sexual Assault is any form of sexual contact without consent or permission. Any sexual contact with a child by an older person is assault and a crime. Men, women, and children of any age are at risk. Sexual assault can occur between strangers, acquaintances, intimate partners and family members. Sexual assault is not an accident. It is a choice. The victim is never responsible for the assault.
