Partner violence affects millions and it's not just physical. This is a real issue, and no one should face it alone. If you or someone you know is experiencing any form of abuse, reach out to us at The Ark.
#EndPartnerViolence#YouDeserveSafety#HealingStartsHere
95% of survivors who reported the impacts of child s*x*al ab*s* experience mental health struggles like depression, anxiety, and PTSD. The trauma affects every part of their life, from emotional well-being and relationships to physical health, education, and financial security.
We know this sounds intense, and hopefully you'll never have to make use of it...but what if you or your child does need to...? 💬
Creating a family safety plan helps ensure that our children feel secure and know what to do in an emergency.
Partner abuse is more common than we realise and includes emotional and financial harm, not just physical violence. If you or someone you know needs support, At The Ark offers confidential help. Sharing this can raise awareness and remind people they’re not alone.
