Domestic violence affects millions of Americans, both men and women. In fact, more than one in four women and more than one in 10 men have experienced sexual violence, physical violence, or have been stalked by an intimate partner, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. However, no one should suffer in silence, and help is available.
