Domestic Violence
Domestic violence is a type of abuse. It involves injuring
someone, generally a spouse or partner, but it can also
be a parent, child or further family member.
Domestic violence is a stern problem. It is the most
frequent cause of injury to women ages 15 to 44. Victims
may undergo physical injuries such as bruises or broken
bones. They may undergo emotionally from depression,
anxiety or social isolation.
It is difficult to know exactly how common domestic
violence is, as people often don't report it. There
is no classic victim. It occurs amid people of all ages.
It affects those of every level of income and education.
