Many women suffer in silence to maintain appearances or out of financial desperation.
This pervasive issue is driven by financial abuse, which occurs in an estimated 98% of domestic violence cases, and societal shame.
Fear of homelessness and poverty, combined with powerful societal pressures to keep abuse secret, often traps victims in a cycle of silence and violence.
Support is available: connect with resources like the GBV Command Centre in South Africa (call 0800 428 428) or the National Domestic Violence Hotline in the US for confidential help and safety planning.
