IPV/DV comes in many forms and whether a person experiences one form or multiple forms, it is all considered abuse. Third Place Transition House is here to support you if you are experiencing IPV/DV.

If you or someone you know is experiencing violence please call our 24/7 Support Line 902-893-3232. ...
