Domestic Violence and Financial Literacy
April 1st, 2015 by Mike Vasilinda
The Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence is partnering with Allstate Insurance to help domestic violence survivors learn more about financial literacy. FCDAV President Tiffany Carr says surveys of domestic abuse victims came to a clear conclusion.
“98 percent report that their finances were controlled as part of the abuse. 98 percent have told us they need help rebuilding their credit, and they need help rebuilding their lives.”
Florida has 42 certified domestic violence centers where last year survivors and their children spent more than a half million nights.
