Hello everyone –
This week’s FYI focuses on the idea “why doesn’t the person just leave the abusive relationship”. Our friends at Stronghearts Native Helpline remind us: “Leaving an abusive relationship is not easy. Often times an abusive partner will use any tactic necessary to manipulate you into staying.”
Please take just 2 minutes to watch this video…let’s learn the “why” together.
