Domestic Violence Awareness Month
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. One in three women in the U.S. has been a victim of domestic violence, regardless of age, economic status, race, ethnicity, or sexual orientation.
Know the possible signs of abuse. If you know a friend or loved one who is being abused, there are ways you can help.
Visit womenshealth.gov and girlshealth.gov for more information on domestic violence and how to help a friend who is being abused.
If you or someone you know are in a crisis or need immediate help, dial 911 or call the National Domestic Violence Hotline: (800) 799-SAFE (7233) or TTY (800) 787−3224
