Thursday, October 15, 2015
Nearly four million women each year suffer from physical, sexual, emotional, and verbal abuse in the United States. The American Psychological Association's report on Violence and the Family found that an estimated 4,000,000 American women experience a serious assault by an intimate partner during an average 12-month period. It is believed that only one in ten battered women report their abuse.
