Welcome<\/strong> to the homepage of HARV Domestic Abuse Team.  <\/p>\n

Domestic abuse is a crime. It is never the fault of the person who is experiencing it. And it can happen to anyone \u2014 regardless of age, background, gender identity, sex, religion, sexual orientation or ethnicity. However, statistics show most domestic abuse is carried out by men and experienced by women.<\/p>\n\n\n

The facts tell a clear story\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is estimated that around 3 women a week die by suicide as a result of domestic abuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And yet, women are three times more likely to be arrested for incidents of abuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
