• 30% of female murder victims are killed by their intimate partners.

Are you a survivor of dating violence?

Has your dating partner ever assaulted you:

        •  physically
        •  sexually
        •  emotionally

Have you been too afraid to speak up about the abuse you've suffered through at the hands of your partner?

Have you been told that the abuse you suffered through "was your fault?" It WASN'T your fault!
