Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) is a form of domestic violence and can include physical, sexual, phycological or emotional abuse. It disproportionately affects marginalized communities and in addition to harming the individual in the relationship, the violence can also have damaging affects on children who witness these crimes against their family members. The result of IPV for both partners and children can be anxiety, depression, PTSD, substance abuse and possibly physical harm to the victim. 

Although, the issue is often ignored and thus the harm and violence continues. please spread this petition to inspire others to educate themselves on IPV.
