We usually think about violence coming from a stranger, but violence happens in our homes at the hands of people we know and love.
If you are a victim of domestic and/or sexual violence and need help, there are many agencies in your area ready to assist you with counseling, advocacy and safety planning. Many of the resources are available to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, free of charge.
Everyone has a right to be safe. You have the right to live your life without abuse, regardless of gender, age, sexual orientation, ability or immigrant status.
