What Interval House wants you to know:
Interval House is CT's largest domestic violence agency, serving 24 towns including Manchester.
Last year, we assisted 6,300 neighbors dealing with intimate partner violence--more than 700 of them right here in Manchester.
Domestic violence does not discriminate. It is an epidemic affecting individuals in every community regardless of age, economic status, sexual orientation, gender, race, religion, or nationality.
One in four (1 in 4) women and one in seven (1 in 7) men will experience severe physical violence at the hand of an intimate partner in their lives.
According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, approximately 15.5 million children are exposed to domestic violence in the United States every year. What's worse: Two out of three of those young witnesses will repeat that behavior in their own adult relationships.
