In recent weeks, our region has experienced deaths where domestic violence is believed to be a factor.  

Any time a person loses their life to domestic violence, we share the grief of their families and friends. It is also a time when others experiencing domestic violence reach out for help - recognizing that their own lives and the lives of their children may be in danger. 

WEAVE spoke with CBS 13 about the resources available for victims of domestic violence and the barriers many experience when seeking help. 

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, help is available. WEAVE’s 24/7 Support Line can be contacted at 916-920-2952 and 24/7 chat is available at www.weaveinc.org - look in the lower right hand corner for the chat app pop up.
