💜 Domestic Violence Awareness Month 🩵
Domestic violence is not rare — it’s a crisis affecting millions across the country.
💔 Every minute, 24 people in the U.S. are victims of r**e, physical violence, or stalking by an intimate partner.
That’s more than 12 million women and men every year.
🏠 In just one single day, over 67,000 victims seek help from domestic violence programs and shelters across the U.S.
Behind each number is a real person — a survivor — deserving of safety, respect, and support.
Let’s start this week by recognizing the scope of the issue and committing to end the silence. 💜
