Domestic violence isn't always physical. It can take many forms, including emotional abuse, manipulation, intimidation, and controlling behavior. Recognizing the warning signs is an important step toward prevention and supporting those who may be experiencing abuse.
The Chelmsford Health Department wants to remind our community that everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and valued. Whether you are experiencing abuse yourself or are concerned about someone you care about, you are not alone. Confidential help and support are available.
