1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men experience severe physical violence by an intimate partner in their lifetime.
Most domestic violence (DV) survivors enter the family court system in a crisis state. DV-focused programs embedded within the court can offer supportive services, reduce the stress of engaging with the court, and empower survivors to navigate their cases.
