Over the past 25 years, researchers and professionals in a variety of human services and animal welfare disciplines have established significant correlations between animal abuse, child abuse and neglect, domestic violence, elder abuse and other forms of violence. For example, mistreating animals is a warning sign that others in the household may not be safe.
We call the interconnectedness of different forms of violence The Link. The National Link Coalition is here to increase awareness of it and stop the cycle of violence that often affects multiple family members. To achieve this critical goal, we need your help.
