October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM), a crucial time to shed light on the alarming prevalence of intimate partner violence, affecting nearly 1 in 2 women and over 2 in 5 men. This blog post explores the definition of domestic violence, its emotional and physical impacts, and the importance of breaking the silence surrounding this issue.
