DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SUPPORT
IF YOU ARE AT RISK OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE OR ARE EXPERIENCING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, PLEASE REACH OUT. BREAK THE CYCLE. YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
The Agency has zero tolerance for domestic violence. If you would like more information regarding any of these topics, or you would like to find out how to stop someone (or yourself) from being exposed to domestic abuse, please contact Quest Management and/or the resources below.
Domestic abuse is often referred to as family violence or spousal abuse. It involves the controlling behavior of someone who is close to you and can include any intentional or reckless act that causes injury, property damage or intimidation to yourself or a family member. Examples of acts of domestic abuse can include (but not limited too):
• Verbal and emotional abuse, e.g., name-calling
• Hitting, punching, kicking, strangulation and other forms of physical abuse
• Sexual Assault
• Forced confinement
• Neglect
• Financial abuse
• Stalking and Harassment
• Ridiculing a person’s religious or personal beliefs
• Threatens to harm you, other people or animals
Many forms of domestic abuse are crimes and can happen against men, women or children. Research also shows that violence in the home may have harmful and lasting consequences for the well-being of children.
