What does sexual abuse look like
​ in an intimate relationship?
Pressuring you to have sex or perform sexual acts
you’re not comfortable with.
Spousal rape was not decriminalized in all 50 states
until 1993.  Where to learn more: https://www.rainn.org/survivor-stories/drewsstory
What is Emotional Abuse?
  Your partner yells at you in a public place, telling you that you never do anything right, that the way you dress embarrasses them, and that you are worthless.

What is Financial Abuse?  Financial abuse happens when an abuser takes control​ of finances to prevent the  other person from leaving and to maintain power in a relationship.  An abuser may take control of all the money, withhold it, and conceal financial information from the victim.  Some forms of financial abuse include: not allowing someone to have a bank account; get a job; or have access to credit cards.
