A study by the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence found that 32% of college students report having experienced dating violence by a previous partner. Domestic violence can include any form of psychological, emotional, verbal, physical, and sexual abuse. It occurs in both heterosexual and same sex relationships. Join us this month to become involved in eliminating violence and abuse in our relationships, our homes and in our community.
