Domestic & Sexual Violence Initiative

Domestic Violence Defined 
A pattern of physical and or psychological abuse, threats, intimidation, isolation or economic coercion used by one person to exert power and control over another person within the context of a dating, family or household relationship.  Note: Domestic and sexual violence impacts all cultures, ages, genders, socio-economic and educational levels and all sexual orientations. 
Physical Abuse
Any intentional unwanted contact with the victim’s body by either the abuser or an object within the abuser’s control. Physical abuse does not have to leave a mark or bruise. It does not even need to hurt. 

Sexual Abuse
Any sexual behavior that is unwanted or interferes with the victim’s right to say “No” to sexual advances (also listed below in sexual violence).


Verbal/Emotional Abuse
Anything that the abuser says or does to the victim that causes the victim to be afraid, lowers the victim’s self-esteem, or manipulates or controls the victim’s feelings or behavior.

Stalking
While legal definitions of stalking vary from one jurisdiction to another, a good working definition of stalking is a course of conduct directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to feel fear.

Cell Phones and Abuse
Cell phones are a great way to keep in touch with friends and family.  Cell phones can play a role in teen and adult dating abuse. Abusers can use cell phones as a powerful tool to keep in constant contact and monitor their girlfriends or boyfriends day and night.
