Domestic abuse, whether physical or emotional, often goes unreported. This injustice affects not only the victim, but also the children who often witness the crime. DYCD works with community-based organizations to empower everyone impacted by domestic abuse. Services include:

• Legal assistance
• Counseling
• Housing services
• Long-term planning
