'Abuse thrives in silence and isolation and when people aren’t connected to hearing other voices, it can give an abuser a lot more control.' How coronavirus is impacting domestic violence shelters
to shelter in place and practice social distancing to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus, one group of people will be particularly impacted—survivors of domestic violence and abuse, for whom home is dangerous.
We’ve started to hear from survivors whose abusive partners are leveraging covid-19 to further isolate, increase fear, and manipulate.the number of people who are mentioning covid-19 and their concerns about how it’s being used in their relationship is increasing We’re working through a lot of different scenarios and trying to plan the best we can with people giving their unique situations, with the networks and resources we may or may not have, to help people be the safest they can in a really unsafe situation.If you think someone you know is in an abusive relationship, reach out to the hotline. What we anticipate is going to happen is that friends and family are going to be the helpers.
Because of the quarantine, people are home with their children and may find themselves in a situation where their abusers are also working from home, so they’re not able to move forward with any plans on leaving and leaving their situation. Eventually, as soon as this is over, I definitely think there will be an increase in calls.The lack of beds is always a concern because domestic violence funding has been very limited. In the past few years, a lot of shelters have closed.
We know that isolation compounds violence. It increases people’s risk, and it compounds the type of violence that people experienceWe know that isolation compounds violence. It increases people’s risk, and it compounds the type of violence that people experience. It enables an abuser to exercise increased levels of coercive control. Psychological, emotional, financial, and physical, we just know that’s true.
