Web Site of the Week: Guided to Safety

While Guided to Safety was founded to serve a particular community in Northern California, the website also features a number of educational resources that can be helpful for anyone trying to understand domestic violence, teen dating violence, and sexual assault. These are not pleasant topics, but as the website notes, learning to speak about difficult subjects is often a first step toward solving problems. Each of the site’s sections (Domestic Violence, Teen Dating Violence, and Sexual Assault) opens to information about a number of subcategories. For instance, under Domestic Violence, readers will find information about the Cycle of Violence and helpful instructions for what to do if one is a witness to or a victim of violence. [CNH]
