Reach out to your loved ones that you're worried about. My understanding is that often what happens is the post abuse. But you know we can provide safe shelter.
When the world shut down due to the pandemic, an unsettling rise in domestic violence emerged. In this episode of 'Life Unscripted', host Janice Arnoldi sits down with Nicole Regeer, Director of Development and Violence Prevention Programs at Gillian's Place, to shed light on this disturbing trend. With more women confined at home with their abusers, the risk of physical violence has surged.
Yet, fear often keeps these women from seeking help, worried that their attempts might backfire and escalate the abuse. Nicole Regeer shares eye-opening statistics on domestic violence during these unprecedented times and explores how isolation exacerbates the plight of victims. She delves into the critical role Gillian's Place plays in offering support and crafting personalized safety plans for those in danger.
Through heartfelt discussion, Janice and Nicole provide practical advice on how friends and family can offer support to loved ones who may be silently suffering. The episode wraps up with a compelling call-to-action, urging listeners to reach out and check in on their loved ones. It's a reminder that even a simple gesture can make a significant difference.
This conversation is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the complex dynamics of domestic violence during the pandemic and learn how to be a beacon of support.
