Domestic Violence is violence and coercive behavior by one adult in an
intimate relationship over
another. It is NOT “marital conflict,” “mutual abuse,” “a lovers’ quarrel,” or a
private family matter.”
It may consist of repeated, severe beatings, or more subtle abuse, including
threats and control. Ninety-five
percent of the victims are women, although men may be also be victims. Domestic
violence is a serious
problem that needs to be addressed by communities.
