Domestic Violence

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

Does your partner…

  • Become jealous without reason?
  • Humiliate you in front of others?
  • Prevent you from seeing friends or family, working or attending school?
  • Control finances and force you to account for everything you spend?
  • Have sudden outbursts of rage?
  • Destroy personal property or sentimental items?
  • Threaten to hurt you or your children?
  • Force you to have sex against your will?
  • Shove, hit, slap, kick, punch, or bite you?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you might be abused.

Mental health sessions are available for survivors of Domestic Violence, specifically emotional, physical, financial, or sexual abuse by a partner and children who have witnessed Domestic Violence in the home. Other services include: parent and child interventions in family therapy, parenting skills training, help to develop a social network and referrals for emergency shelter, legal help, and other specialized services.

This program is funded in part by a grant from the Office for Victims of Crime and the Connecticut Judicial Branch Office of Victim Services.
