Peace House- Domestic Violence Program
The Peace House DV program is designed to support, educate and empower domestic violence victims as they become survivors.
Our goal at Peace House is to be a support for survivors, providing them an opportunity to begin to heal from the trauma they’ve experienced and create a life of peace and stability for themselves.
What is considered Domestic Violence in Ohio?
Domestic Violence in Ohio is categorized as physical, emotional, verbal, financial, psychological and sexual. Domestic violence occurs when a family member, partner, ex-partner or familiar person attempts to physically or psychologically dominate another. Domestic violence often refers to violence between spouses, or spousal abuse but can also include cohabitants and non-married intimate partners.
Please remember that all forms of domestic violence demonstrate a lack of respect and are used as a means of intimidation or control.
Every victim of domestic violence deserves an opportunity to become a survivor.
