Relationships are linked to happiness and living a fulfilled life. Relationships provide us with friends and family to share our lives with and people who can help us out in tough times. Good relationships often bring us plenty of laughter and as a result, lots of joy.
Violence and abuse in relationships can any affect anyone regardless of age, gender identification, sexual orientation, race, religion or disability.
