Financial Abuse
Financial abuse occurs in up to 98% of abusive relationships and is one of the top reasons that it is difficult for people to leave. Unfortunately, many people do not even recognize financial abuse as abuse. To address this prevalent issue and provide the necessary education on this topic, we recently created a guide covering: -
What financial abuse is - The warning signs - Ways to tell if someone is being financially abused - Helpful resources and more.
