Domestic Violence Statistics
A recent Commonwealth Fund Report reveals that one-third of American women report being physically or sexually abused by a husband or boyfriend at some point in their lives.
Statistics reveal that as many 30 to 60 percent of children living in violent homes also suffer from abuse
Men who witness their mother’s abuse are 700 times more likely to abuse their female partners. Every 37.8 seconds in America a man is battered, which is more than 830,000 men a year who fall victim to domestic violence
30 percent of Americans say they know a woman who has been physically abused by her husband or boyfriend in the past year.
At least 3 women are murdered by their husbands and boyfriends in this country every day.
