Domestic Violence isn't always visible.

Davie Center for Violence Prevention is here to help. If you or someone you know needs help, call the 24/7 Crisis Line at (336) 751-HELP (4357).

Domestic violence can take many forms. In addition to physical violence, abuse may include controlling finances, isolating someone from friends or family, monitoring their activities, threatening or intimidating them, or using technology to control or harass them. Recognizing the signs can be an important first step toward getting help.
