Yes,
domestic violence is a known epidemic. With each generation,
the
number of incidences of domestic crimes increases.
Therefore, every
result of
this abusive behavior increases.
Domestic
violence crimes may well be the most family damaging,
unrecognized, ignored
and denied social misconduct of our time.
When you
look at only one of the national statistics, "that 80% of
violent
juvenile and adult prisoners were raised in violent homes".
It
makes it
clear that breaking the domestic violent crime cycle could
achieve
much.
It could
reduce the number of incarcerated individuals, crimes
committed,
the number of victims of crimes, expenses paid to
incarcerate
and maintain as well as other issues that are too
numerous
to list.
It is our
belief that ending the cycle of domestic and family
violent
crimes will have more impact than any other change to fight
our
social issues or community problems.
Our current
laws and "legal game" is behaving in a very wimpy
and
passive manner in half-hearted attempts to acknowledge and
solve
the serious problem of epidemic proportions.
We feel that
the planned efforts of Can Too Center, Inc., will
make
dramatic changes in the direction of solving the issues and
results
from the crime of domestic violence. And we need you support
in
this endeavor.
