Understanding Domestic Violence

There are many misconceptions about domestic violence, and the phrase tends to mean different things to different people. At YWCA Spokane, we use the term intimate partner domestic violence to refer to any situation where one partner in an intimate relationship tries to maintain power and control over the other person. We know that domestic violence can manifest in many different ways, all of which can be tremendously impactful.

This client shared her story as part of YWCA Spokane’s Learn & Give Challenge offered during Domestic Violence Action Month 2020. The Challenge takes a deeper look at domestic violence through the lens of Maslow’s expression of human needs. Please take the time to learn more by exploring the links below.
