Rate of women and children presented in domestic violence from 2008-2015
Dear Foundation to Prevent Violence against Women and their Children,
What is the rate of women and children presented in a domestic house hold each year, is this rate increasing or decreasing throughout the years 2008- 2015. Are women reporting this regularly? What is being done about this?
Yours faithfully,
