October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. This year, we thought we’d focus on the numbers.

In 2024, children were involved or present during 16,668 incidents of domestic violence in New Jersey.

It’s estimated that children witness nearly 25% of reported incidents of domestic violence. The effects are traumatizing and children can grow up to repeat the pattern of abuse as adults. To help break that cycle, Providence House offers the PALS (Peace: A Learned Solution) Program — a creative arts therapy program — to children ages three to 12 years of age who have witnessed violence in their homes.

Our Providence House Domestic Violence Services team works to end the cycle of domestic abuse through education, empowerment, safe havens and advocacy. Services are FREE. If you or someone you know needs help, call our 24-hour hotline. In Ocean County call 732-244-8259. In Burlington County call 609-871-7551.

THANK YOU, Lillian and Lillian Foundation! Providence House is proud of our many years of partnership, working to provide education, awareness, help, and healing to survivors of domestic violence.

Bags, bags and more bags! The Stephanie Nicole Parze Foundation has once again provided care bags to Providence House Domestic Violence Services.
