OCTUBRE: MES DE SER CONCIENTES SOBRE LA VIOLENCIA DOMESTICA OCTOBER IS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH

WE HAVE MANY BEAUTIFUL TRADITIONS. FAMILY VIOLENCE IS NOT ONE OF THEM.

NOSOTROS TENEMOS MUCHAS TRADICIONES BELLAS.

LA VIOLENCIA FAMILIAR NO ES UNA DE ELLAS.

Domestic violence is NEVER a private matter. YOU ARE NOT ALONE! In case of emergency, call 911 or 1-800-799-7233, the national, 24-hour Hotline on Domestic violence.

La violencia doméstica NUNCA es un asunto privado. ¡TU NO ESTAS SOLO(A)! en caso de emergencia, marca 911 o al 1-800-799-7233—

numero nacional de Violencia Domestica las 24 horas (Hotline).

Algunos factores acerca de la Violencia Domestica: Tres de cada cuatro personas en los Estados Unidos

conocen personalmente alguien que es y/o ha sido víctima de la Violencia Domestica.

La Violencia Domestica presenta uno de los índices más altos de agresión a las mujeres entre las edades de 15 a 44 años en los Estados Unidos. Incluso mu-cho más alto que los índices de accidentes de automó-vil, robos y casos de violación sexual.

Una mujer es golpeada por su esposo o compañero cada 15 segundos en los Estados Unidos.

Here are some facts: Nearly 3 out of 4 people in the U.S. personally know

someone who is or who has been a victim of domestic violence.

Domestic violence is the leading cause of injury to women between the ages of 15 and 44 in the United States, more than car accidents, muggings, and rape, combined.

One woman is beaten by her husband or partner eve-ry 15 seconds in the United States.

MITO: Violencia domestica es terrible, pero ocurre en otras partes, no en mi comunidad, ni en mi barrio, ni en mi cultura, ni en mi religión, o en mi congregación. REALIDAD: Violencia Domestica le ocurre a personas de todos niveles educacionales y socio-económicos. Violencia Domestica ocurre en todas las razas, religiones y grupos de diferentes eda-des.

MYTH: Domestic violence is terrible but it only happens in other plac-es, not in my community, not in my neighborhood, not in my culture, not in my religion, not in my parish. REALITY: Domestic violence happens among persons of all education-al and socio-economic levels. Domestic violence happens among all races, religions, and people of all ages.

“Cuando escuché a mi vecino golpear a su esposa, pensé….puede ser mi hermana. Yo quisiera que alguien le ayudara, por eso yo llamé al 911.”

“When I heard my neighbor beat his wife, I thought...that could be my sister. I would want someone to help her, that’s why I called 911.”

October is the month for Domestic Violence Prevention.

But did you know much Domestic Violence starts with DATING? Our “Valor” team—Brenda, Dalilah, and José — offer some thoughts each week to help us all become more aware. This week…..

Here is a RED FLAG that you should look out for if you suspect that you

or someone you know is in an abusive relationship!

F Scenario: John and Claire have been dating for three months. Claire is not allowed to go out with friends. If she does, John gets mad at her. John may go hang with his buddies, and Claire cannot say no. Claire has a job and gets paid money, but John uses that money to buy what he wants. John talks over Claire, but Claire cannot confront John about the way that she feels. John makes all the choices and he always has the last word. José’s Advice to Claire: Claire should try to talk to John and let him know how she feels. Claire needs to realize that she is in an un-healthy relationship and in a healthy relationship couples support one another not take advantage. If you or a loved one is in a violent relationship, please get help: Chat at www.loveisrespect.org. call 866.331.9474 text "loveis" to 22522

“A loving relationship is one in which the loved one is free to be him/herself — to laugh with me, but never at me; to cry with me, but never because of me; to love life, to love oneself, to love being loved. Such a relationship is based upon freedom and can nev-er grow in a jealous heart.”

- Leo Buscaglia
