Doubling up! Texas and Delaware

DEMi fans we are excited to ramp up production on this awareness project. For the next 10 days we will feature 2 states PER DAY.


DELAWARE

In Delaware, 16.7% of criminal domestic violence incidents resulted in actual injury.



TEXAS

More than 27% of the young people in Texas have been victims of physical dating violence. If you include emotional and verbal abuse, the rate rises to nearly 50%.

This means roughly 50% of the ENTIRE population of the largest state in the continental US is already in a domestic violence situation at least once before they even reach the age of 30.
