Invisible Scars: Children & Domestic Violence



Every year more than 3 million U.S. children will witness domestic violence in the home, often leaving them with feelings of guilt—thinking they caused the abuse— and depression, or withdrawal or acting out. These are invisible scars.

At Safe Horizon, more than half of the beds in our domestic violence shelters belong to children. It is our commitment that every night they are sleeping safely. Watch the video above to learn how a splash of purple nail polish bring attention to the forgotten and powerless victims of domestic violence. Donate. Paint. Share.

Take the vow to #PutTheNailinIt to help end domestic violence at putthenailinit.org

Special thank you to #Visionarists for making this video possible.
