Domestic Violence Awareness Day...

May 09, 2009

Objective:
To bring awareness to domestic violence.

Please join me in writing a post on your blog about a victim of domestic violence. Also please include links to programs and services that can help the victims and their families. My sister suffered though years of pure hell! Her hubby was able to abuse her and her children, because of silence. Silence, fear and embarrassment are the best tools an abuser can have. Let your voice be heard and save lives.
