Domestic Violence Awareness Month

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.  Clearwater County Sheriff Darin Halverson says domestic violence continues to be a problem nationwide.

Halverson also says many people don’t seek medical attention after being on the receiving end of domestic violence.

Another thing Halverson points out is that domestic violence can be a learned behavior.

If you’re a victim of domestic abuse and need help, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE.
