Content
Chooper's Guide, a leading web resource for addiction treatment, recovery, and social justice, will be adding a domestic violence section to their resource area. It is estimated that 61% of the intimate partner violence that occurs in the United States is alcohol or drug related and the economic cost is 12.6 billion dollars annually.It is furter estimated that 85% of child abuse case investigated have substance abuse as the primary causal factor As the incidence of domestic violence is correlated with alcohol use/abuse, we believe that information and resources relevant to domestic abuse should be included on Chooper's Guide.
As we are just beginning to build this section, we welcome suggestions for resources, images, articles and any other information relevant to domestic abuse.
