October 14 is Health Cares About Domestic Violence Day.

Domestic violence is a public health issue, and health and medical providers can both educate all their patients about the health impact of experiencing partner violence and share information about resources for survivors so that everyone has access to support regardless of whether or not they disclose to a provider.
Health care providers, to prepare your practice to support the survivors you care for, visit https://brnw.ch/21x6per for evidence-based interventions and resources from Futures Without Violence.
