Not that all the calls I’ve previously done don’t affect me (and each is devastating in their own way) but these 5 calls really hit me hard as I have personally experienced domestic violence (aka Intimate Partner Violence) on multiple occasions. Please check out the links below to learn how to spot the warning signs of an abusive relationship and what you can do to help you or someone you know get away safely. Domestic abuse can strike couples of all races, religions, social economic status, and sexual orientations. I firmly believe being more informed on the topic can help so many people out there. But PLEASE, if you are going to help someone escape a relationship always have a well thought out plan, the best way out is the safe way out. Take care everyone❤️ If need be, please call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE or visit www.thehotline.org 24hr victims hotlines https://victimconnect.org/resources/national-hotlines/ Sources for DV stats: National Domestic Violence Hotline websiste https://www.thehotline.org/ Statistics https://www.projectsanctuary.org/dv/some-statistics-about-domestic-violence/ More statistics http://www.standffov.org/statistics Stats on women of color https://www.doj.state.or.us/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/women_of_color_network_facts_domestic_violence_2006.pdf Gun violence and DV https://everytownresearch.org/reports/guns-intimate-partner-violence/ Warning signs/red flags https://www.thehotline.org/is-this-abuse/abuse-defined/ Domestic violence in LGBTQ community https://ncadv.org/blog/posts/domestic-violence-and-the-lgbtq-community Common warning signs and red flags: https://www.projectsanctuary.org/dv/the-red-flags-of-a-potential-domestic-violence-abuser/ More signs and how to help: https://www.verywellmind.com/how-to-help-a-victim-of-domestic-violence-66533 What to do when a friend tells you they've been abused https://medium.com/@SLabusehelp/your-friend-has-been-abused-what-do-you-do-5938e8f9de47 Why DV victims might not leave: https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/77432/WHO_RHR_12.36_eng.pdf;jsessionid=77461BD3E945F261C6D50932C6DDD922?sequence=1 DV Stats https://ncadv.org/statistics With each backstory there's an educational life lesson that either the public, dispatchers, first responders or police can learn from.
