Since 1989, our Nation has recognized October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month.  One of the campaigns for this year is #Every1KnowsSome1 and in 2023 this is still true.  This kind of abuse affects everyone – men, women, and children of all races, religions, and cultures.  Domestic violence is defined as a pattern of abusive behavior in any relationship used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another partner.

Mental health and boundaries are closely interconnected. Establishing and maintaining healthy boundaries is crucial for maintaining good mental health.
