Domestic Violence is a reality in our community. Too many women are not safe in their own homes. Bartlett is committed to changing these facts . .
Domestic violence occurs in relationships of all races, religions, economic and social backgrounds.
Ninety-five percent of domestic violence victims are women abused by men. Domestic violence is the single major cause of injury to women in the United States. Three to four million American women are battered each year. Battering often starts, or becomes worse, during pregnancy. Once violence begins, it tends to increase over time and becomes more severe.
