A Shadow to Call Her Own

Jacqueline Mendez presents...A Shadow to Call Her Own

According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence:
  • An estimated 1.3 million women are victims of physical abuse
  • One-third of female homicides that are reported to police are killed by an intimate partner
  • One in every 4 women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime, with females, ages 20-24, being at the greatest risk for intimate partner violence

Domestic violence is one of the most chronically under-reported crimes in the country. Please pass this story along to anyone you know; it may be purchased at www.amazon.com/shorts for .49 cents. Ten percent of profits go to assist battered women and children. Thank you for your support.
