The company has produced a 12-minute awareness video and complementary materials that soon will be available for all Georgia businesses to use as a resource in developing their own domestic violence awareness campaigns. According to coalition statistics, battering by an intimate partner is the leading cause of injury to women in the United States. The incidence of domestic violence injuries exceeds the number of rapes, muggings, auto accidents and cancer deaths combined each year. It is our goal to help lift that veil permanently. Calling this number will automatically connect the caller to the nearest family violence agency or shelter.
Businesses can make a difference.
Georgia Coalition on Family Violence is a nonprofit organization representing family violence shelters in the state of Georgia.
