Collection: How To Help A Friend

Our goal for this Collection is to share resources and information to help anyone be equipped and ready to help if someone they know becomes involved in an abusive relationship. We know that many people in abusive relationships become very isolated through those relationships. However, in most cases, there is a ripple effect on various other people who are affected by every abusive relationship. This includes friends and family members of both the victim and the perpetrator. In addition, the direct and indirect effects can spill over into workplaces, neighborhoods, community and religious groups, schools, and the list goes on. In this Collection, you’ll find suggestions, strategies, and resources to help you be ready to help if you ever find yourself trying to figure out how to help someone you know who is being abused.
