VIOLENCE Any person may experience violence at some time in their lives. Violence cuts across all economic levels, educational backgrounds, ethnic, racial, and affectional preference lines. It happens to people who are legally married, separated, living with or involved in a relationship with a partner. Violence can happen to people of any age; they may be doctors, homemakers, students, factory workers, lawyers, anyone. . . . . . . .
