Survivors of domestic and intimate partner violence

Support for Survivors of Domestic & Intimate Partner Violence

We provide free, confidential  support for individuals affected by abuse within a domestic or intimate relationship. Whether the harm is physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, financial, or controlling in nature, we are here to support you safely and respectfully.

Understanding Domestic & Intimate Partner Violence

Domestic and intimate partner violence can take many forms. It is not always visible, and it is never your fault.

This type of abuse may include:

  • Physical harm or threats of violence

  • Emotional or psychological manipulation

  • Sexual coercion or abuse

  • Financial control or exploitation

  • Isolation from friends, family, or resources

  • Intimidation, monitoring, or coercive control

Abuse can happen to anyone—regardless of age, gender, background, or social status. If you feel unsafe, controlled, or afraid in your relationship, your experience matters and deserves support
