The Silent Secret

"So over the years, you go on. You make things work. Your children get older. You get involved in homework and all their school activities and you do not stop to think you are exhausted from making all this happen and every so often, there is a black eye or your head is being held to the floor or against the wall saying I will not tolerate this or that from you anymore."

- Carolyn Cox,
Domestic Violence Survivor

Carolyn: The Silent Secret

With limited resources and children to protect and provide for, victims of domestic violence often feel they must stay in abusive environments.

Fear, shame, and lack of someone – somewhere – to turn to, keep them in situations that are demoralizing and violent – putting themselves and their loved ones in constant peril.

Often they keep this situation their own silent secret – sharing with no one, just as Carolyn Cox had done.

Many domestic violence advocacy organizations, like McHenry County’s Turning Point, work to give victims of domestic violence options that permit them to leave violent situations – enabling them to end dangerous situations like the one Carolyn lived with for so many years.
