"The Outrage" What is it?

HALT Family Abuse is proud to announce actors from  "The Outrage" will be educating and answering questions at this FREE interactive workshop in October.  Dynamics of relationships developed with friends, family and dating partners during their teens lay foundations that stay with them the rest of their lives.   "The Outrage" received the national Innovative Initiative of the Year Award in 2010,   SAFEHOME is Johnson County's only domestic violence shelter.

Domestic Violence - Why Doesn't She Just Leave?

Domestic Violence - A question often asked by people is, “Why doesn’t she just leave?”  

When victims choose to leave abusers, violence by their intimate terrorists increases exponentially. When you hear on the news about a husband murdering his wife, it is often when she has left him or filed for divorce. 

The answer to why she doesn't just leave is actually a multi-faceted question and will be answered with a dramatic performance by Becky Everly, a Professional Storyteller, at the “Guiding Families to Safety Conference at Leawood Baptist Church on Saturday, 10/11/2014. At this educational event, 4 types of abuse will be discussed (child abuse, teen dating violence, domestic violence and elder abuse).
