  • Mayo Clinic site on domestic violence  

    Good resource for survivors, but also a good resource for the continuing education of the medical community. Addresses the signs of domestic violence, acknowledges and describes power and control issues (examples include using children as pawns and emotional abuse), breaking the cycle, getting ready to leave (safety planning), and where to find help.
