The DVIU serves to promote healthiness in our community by reducing the incidence of domestic violence, better coordinating the efforts of domestic violence service providers and by improving victim cooperation with the criminal justice system. Too many people falsely believe that domestic violence is a private family matter. Because many have not realized how serious this social problem is, little is being done by society.
Bad things happen when good people stay quiet.
Domestic violence is never the victim's fault. The abuser uses these to maintain control over the victim.
