Information Is Key
“KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.” What does this mean? It means the more you know, the safer you will be. It is important that we teach people about domestic violence and sexual assault. This is important if we want domestic violence and sexual assault to stop. HAVEN isn’t the only organization that is trying to stop domestic violence and sexual assault. There are other people, organizations, agencies and communities who want to help by getting good information and research to you. If we can let people know about domestic violence and sexual assault, we can give people the information they need to help them change their lives.Local Deaf Resources
