There is a common belief that domestic violence increases during the holidays. It is important to remember that while the stress of the holidays can exacerbate domestic violence, the holidays and stress itself do not cause domestic violence. Domestic violence abusers are solely responsible for creating the intentional context of power and control over their victim that is domestic violence.

The Legal Assistance for Victims Project (LAV Project) at KCSDV is building an LAV Attorney Network of trauma informed attorneys across the state. It is connecting and providing sexual assault survivors with crucial legal assistance and representation they need. The LAV Project seeks to fund legal representation for the various issues that victims of non-intimate partner sexual violence encounter. A non-intimate partner is a person who is not a current or former spouse or current or former dating partner. A non-intimate partner includes family members, neighbors, friends, acquaintances, and coworkers.
