Text of Note

Domestic violence is prevalent in every community, crossing all social, economic, racial, and ethnic groups. According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV), an estimated 1.3 million American women will experience domestic violence and/or intimate partner violence (DV/IPV) each year. Women make up 85 percent of the victims of DV/IPV. For African American women, statistics reflect an all-time high. NCADV reports, "Black women are almost three times as likely to experience death as a result of DV/IPV than white women. While Black women only make up 8 percent of the population, 22 percent of homicides that result from DV/IPV happen to Black women and 29 percent of all victimized women, making it one of the leading causes of death for Black women ages 15-35. These numbers are inclusive to women in the church.
