The Cost of Domestic Violence

Interesting- and short!- piece on the costs of fleeing domestic violence.  We often champion victims who try to leave abusive situations with little understanding of what it costs them, financially and otherwise. This piece, which highlights a study on the economic costs of leaving an abusive situation, helps foster greater understanding and helpful things employers, among others, might consider.

Help is available for those seeking refuge from domestic violence:  The Unity House 24 hour Domestic Violence Hotline is (518) 272-2370.

The NYS Domestic Violence Hotline is 800-942-6906.
