ENDING THE CYCLE OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE BY BREAKING THE SILENCE!!
Agnes’ Centers for Domestic Solutions is a nonprofit organization in Arizona that helps stop domestic violence by educating the victims and perpetrators. In our Support Groups and Classes, we Motivate, Educate, Encourage, and Inspire the young and wise whom are affected by Domestic Violence.

​Studies suggest that up to 10 million children witness some form of domestic violence annually
Domestic violence is the leading cause of injury to women more than car accidents, muggings, and rapes combined.
Nearly 1 in 5 teenage girls who have been in a relationship said a boyfriend threatened violence or self-harm if presented with a breakup.
1 in 4 men have been physically abused (slapped, pushed, shoved) by an intimate partner.
1 in 7 men have been severely physically abused (hit with a fist or hard object, kicked, slammed against something, choked, burned, etc.) by an intimate partner at some point in their lifetime.
Nearly 1 in 10 men in the United States has experienced rape, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner and reported at least one measured impact related to experiencing these or other forms of violent behavior in the relationship (e.g., being fearful, concerned for safety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, need for healthcare, injury, contacting a crisis hotline, need for housing services, need for victim’s advocate services, need for legal services, missed at least one day of work or school).
Based on reports from 10 countries, between 55% and 95% of women who had been physically abused by their partners had never contacted non-governmental organizations, shelters, or the police for help.
The costs of intimate partner violence in the US alone exceed $5.8 billion per year: $4.1 billion are for direct medical and health care services, while productivity losses account for nearly $1.8 billion.
