Statistics highlight the widespread nature of family violence. For example:
According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV), approximately 1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men have experienced severe intimate partner physical violence, intimate partner contact sexual violence, or intimate partner stalking with impacts such as injury or fear of death.
Studies indicate that children exposed to family violence are at increased risk for mental health issues, behavioral problems, and academic difficulties.
