Healing After Domestic Violence
Did you know that every 9 seconds a woman in the US is assaulted or beaten? Or that as many as 1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men face domestic violence from an intimate partner?
Domestic Violence remains a serious issue across the nation and many victims suffer in silence due to shame, lack of resources and isolation.
In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we sat down with Dr. Angelia Riggsbee, "Dr. A" to discuss her story as a survivor, her work in the community advocating for victims, red flags to be aware of and much more.
