Domestic Violence

The harsh realities of domestic violence are a sad commentary on modern society. But ignoring it or hiding it as a family matter will not make the problem go away or diminish its human impact. LSE’s domestic violence booklets have been used extensively by counselors, in both outreach programs and individual counseling settings, to identify root causes and assist in making informed choices leading to less violent behaviors. (See also Personal Improvement, and Family Life & Issues.)
