Domestic Violence Impacts Everyone.
The lifetime economic burden of domestic violence in the US has been estimated at $3.6 trillion.
Even after escaping abuse, ongoing harassment online, at work, or in-person; lingering financial effects; custody disputes and other legal entanglements; and exposure to frequent reminders of controlling behaviors and abuse in popular culture can sustain or re-intensify the trauma.
Survivors of domestic violence—including those who have escaped—are at greatly increased risk for PTSD, an anxiety disorder, or a major depressive disorder, and they are at greatly increased risk for self-harm, suicidal ideation, suicide, and substance use disorders.
Each year in the US, 10 million people experience domestic violence.
Domestic violence is a pattern of behaviors that systematically deprive the victim of autonomy and agency.
People who believe they would never allow themselves to be abused may be at greater risk
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. This month advocates, organizations, and communities come together to share stories, offer resources, and raise awareness about healing from and preventing abuse. Domestic violence impacts people from all walks of life, and we must continue the fight to break the cycle of violence.
At Aimee Says, we’re using AI to make support for survivors more accessible than ever. This October, we’re doubling down on our mission to help survivors find the resources they need. By spreading awareness and starting conversations, we aim to empower communities to take action and stand with survivors.
