Family Violence

Family violence refers to abusive behavior within a family or intimate relationship that can take many forms, including physical, emotional, sexual, and financial abuse. It affects individuals of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. This violence can manifest as physical harm, threats, manipulation, or controlling behavior, often leading to lasting psychological and emotional effects. It is important to recognize that family violence is about power and control, and victims may feel trapped due to fear, love, or economic reliance.
