Nashville, TN Domestic Violence Programs...
There are currently 7 domestic violence and abuse shelters and programs in Nashville, TN with 4 offering a hotline and 3 offering emergency shelter. Outside of this city and still nearby, you can also find help at these 18 domestic violence and abuse shelters and programs in places like Madison, Mt. Juliet, and Franklin. If you have questions, consider reading these domestic violence facts and statistics, our archive of 679 domestic violence articles, recommended books on domestic violence, or these insightful stories about domestic violence survivors. As you may know, domestic violence increased significantly during the pandemic and victims had even fewer resources to turn to while being confined in their home. 71% of victims reported that their abuser surveilled their computer activity closely or used technology to monitor them, making it harder to reach out for help. We wanted to help provide assistance to those who may be struggling with these silent battles, alone.
That’s why we created a comprehensive tech safety guide that highlights the increased vulnerability for victims and how to support these populations during unprecedented times. You can check it out below:
