Causes We Support: Domestic Violence Prevention | Preventing Violence Against Women & Children

At Island Trauma Services, we understand the difficulties our customers are facing when they contact us. We have all experienced the grief of losing a loved one. When the person we’ve lost has been taken from us by an act of violence, the emotional turmoil that can often follow can be severe and long lasting. It is crucial to get the support you need to help you deal with such a tragic event.

According to the dictionary, definitions of Domestic Violence include “The inflicting of physical injury by one family or household member on another; a repeated or habitual pattern of such behavior.” “Any abusive, violent, coercive, forceful, or threatening act or word inflicted by one member of a family or household on another.”

To those who have lost loved ones to domestic violence, the definition is so much more than what one might find in the dictionary, and for many, includes an unthinkable and tragic event which may result in deep feelings of grief, confusion, anger, guilt… as well as causing nightmares, depression and in some cases PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).

Here are some statistics and facts about Domestic Violence from safehorizon.org:

• One in 4 women will experience domestic violence during her lifetime.
• Women experience more than 4 million physical assaults and rapes because of their partners, and men are victims of nearly 3 million physical assaults.
• Women are more likely to be killed by an intimate partner than men
• Women ages 20 to 24 are at greatest risk of becoming victims of domestic violence.
• Every year, 1 in 3 women who is a victim of homicide is murdered by her current or former partner.
• Every year, more than 3 million children witness domestic violence in their homes.
• Children who live in homes where there is domestic violence also suffer abuse or neglect at high rates (30% to 60%).
• More than 60% of domestic violence incidents happen at home.
• According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, domestic violence is the third leading cause of homelessness among families.
• In New York City, 25% of homeless heads of household became homeless due to domestic violence.
• Survivors of domestic violence face high rates of depression, sleep disturbances, anxiety, flashbacks, and other emotional distress.
• Without help, girls who witness domestic violence are more vulnerable to abuse as teens and adults.
• Without help, boys who witness domestic violence are far more likely to become abusers of their partners and/or children as adults, thus continuing the cycle of violence in the next generation.

Domestic Violence knows no race, ethnicity, financial status, sexual orientation or other factors. Domestic Violence can happen to anyone. Sadly, many cases of Domestic Violence go unreported. Please visit http://www.safehorizon.org/index.php to learn more.
