Domestic violence is a pattern of coercive, controlling behavior that can include physical, emotional,
psychological, sexual or nancial abuse. It is a pervasive, life-threatening crime that affects thousands of
individuals in Connecticut regardless of age, gender, economic status, race, religion, sexual orientation or
education. Victims are left feeling scared, confused, dependent and insecure about their ability to survive
on their own, nancially or otherwise. The children of a battered parent must contend with these same fears
and realities.
