Many people understand physical and verbal abuse. Other forms can be harder to identify. Cultural abuse is when someone uses aspects of their partner's culture, identity or spirituality, to inflict suffering or as a means of control. #SocialJustice #LegalAid #DVAM

Many people understand what physical and verbal abuse are. Other forms of abuse can be harder to identify. Economic abuse is when a person controls their partner's finances, access to money, or ability to get or maintain employment or education. #SocialJustice #LegalAid #DVAM

This number doesn't account for other forms of abuse like financial, emotional, digital, or cultural abuse. Domestic violence is never okay. If you or someone you know is in need of help, contact the National DV Hotline at 1−800−799−7233 or TTY 1−800−787−3224.

Did you know that 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men will experience domestic violence. Anyone, regardless of gender, race, sexual identity or orientation, or socio-economic status, can experience domestic violence. Join FVAP this month in raising awareness. #DVAM #CA #WA
