DOMESTIC VIOLENCE RESOURCES

If you feel that you are experiencing any form of abuse with your partner, whether it's physical, sexual, or emotional, there are local options for help. This includes your partner physically hurting you, emotionally manipulating you, making you feel alienated from friends or family, withholding resources from you, or making you take part in sexual activities against your will. Your midwives are available 24/7 to talk about these issues and provide help.
