PAMA

PAMA PAMA ( People Against Man Abuse ) is an awareness program that deals with men being abused by their The reality is that men report abuse less than women.

The idea that man could be abused seems unimaginable to many, yet it is a reality.But domestic violence against men, and abusive relationships of all types, occurs across all ethnic, racial, religious and socio- economic levels. The statistics of men abused by their wives is difficult to determine, but the Bureau of Justice Statistics Crime Data Brief on " Intimate Partner Violence" (2003), found

approximately 15% of domestic violence cases involve men as the victims. This statistic may be even higher because the abuse of men usually goes unreported. Abused men also reacted differently and are treated differently by society than abused women. Sadly, for men who do report being abused, the people around them are usually surprised, and instead of dealing with abuse, they may just minimized it or not believe them at all.
