About this Website

This site was designed and developed by the staff and volunteers of Women Helping Battered Women.

WHBW exists to serve all victims of domestic violence regardless of gender, sexual orientation, race, religion or socio-economic level. However, to reflect the fact that at least 95% of all cases reported to police or domestic violence hotlines involve heterosexual men battering heterosexual women, this website uses the pronoun "he" for the batterer and "she" for the victim/survivor. This does not mean that women cannot batter men or other women, or that men cannot batter their male intimate partners.
