Domestic violence and intimate partner abuse are more common than you might think. If you have a friend or loved one who may be mistreated by their partner, you may feel helpless to assist them. We sat down with social worker, Harlow Kedzie, to talk about how abusive relationships work and what survivors and their loved ones can do to get to the other side.
We have more resources below including helpful apps, hotlines, and more videos from experts to help you help others. Stay safe!
