Hard Facts About Abuse

“Abuse” includes other terms used to describe the same thing: domestic violence, intimate partner violence, family violence, wife-beating, and all other types of harm done to you by any person you are in an intimate relationship with.

1 in 3 women, 1 in 9 men, and even higher numbers of LGBTQ+ people will be abused in their lifetimes. So it can be happening to you, whether you are a woman in a relationship with an abusive man, a man in a relationship with an abusive woman, or being abused in any other gender-oriented relationship.
