October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Everyone knows someone that has been touched by the pain of domestic abuse, and you probably don't even know it. DV is a problem that hides behind closed doors, a secret kept from even the closest friends and family members. It is a problem in our society that is largely under-reported and many women and men in abusive situations don't know how to get out!
