Don' t put it off, zs

Do not postpone it responds to the experienced myths of society and points out that the victim does not have to so-called. wait for a slap before he can even seek help. This is because other forms of violence (psychological, emotional, social, economic and sexual) often harm the victim much more. Violence is also not only committed by men against women or only between partners. We must also not neglect intergenerational violence, violence against the elderly, children and others. The chairman of the association is a police officer, Lt. Col. Mgr. Ing. Bc. Vladimir Borsky, MBA, LL. M., who encountered domestic violence in the performance of the service and currently also teaches the issue.

Since 2017, the increase in cases of domestic violence, which the Police of the Czech Republic learned about, has increased by almost 100% per year. We must not forget that the police will only know about a fraction of the cases. Given that families have spent much more time together in recent months than before, this can negatively affect the family climate. The risk of domestic violence is also increased by the fact that the endangered person has limited opportunities to seek help.

The goal of a violent person is to gain power and control over the endangered person, and therefore he tries to isolate him as much as possible from family, friends or co-workers. And that' s why we work mainly in the virtual world. Whether the victims themselves or their loved ones turn to us, we always try to advise how to break the vicious circle of social violence.
