"The 'crime of secrecy' is becoming open as more women victims share their horror. It isn't just something that happens in bad neighborhoods....Domestic violence is about power and control, about breaking people down until they have no say. Experts and victims believe solving the problem requires a careful unraveling, just short of a societal overhaul." (ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH) This article focuses on domestic violence and provides a firsthand account of one survivor's story of abuse, empowerment and recovery.
