— -- If you or anyone you know is part of an abusive relationship, we urge you to seek help.

Help for abused women:Every state has shelters for abused women. Contact your doctor or the police for help. You can also ask the operator to connect you to a crisis center. It is also a good idea to have a list of emergency numbers, as well as some money and important papers, at hand. For more information: www.enditnow.gov/dv/espanol.html
