From the Pen of a Domestic Violence Counselor I

7/27/2016

Comments

 
Domestic Violence, Intimate Partner, Family Violence statistics according to the CDC in Atlanta and other organizations, posits a myriad of health and safety issues facing American citizens.  
 
This column will highlight education and preventative measures citizens can take to improve the quality of life for anyone who lives with, or knows someone who lives in a volatile intimate relationship. 
 
If you have questions or concerns regarding Domestic Violence, please feel free to comment with questions to Domestic Violence Coordinators, Tami Semple,  John Toigo, or Patricia Lawson. One of the most frequent questions that comes to mind, is, “Why does she stay?”  The simple answer is, it’s complicated.  In the coming issues we will begin to shine light on both the question and the answer(s) to that question.

    My experience in working with Domestic Violence has multiple layers of complexity.  Growing up in a home where domestic violence prevailed exposing my siblings and me to recurring traumatic family discord. The resulting confusion and distrust in tumultuous adult relationships prompted me to diligently seek to understand the what, why, and how, in regards to the components that produce and sustain family violence.  

    Now, however, with education, training, and practical experience, my struggle to make sense of it all is only helpful to me and others if I pass on my experience and knowledge regarding the research on domestic violence and its impact upon young children.
