Employers Against Domestic Violence (EADV) provides practical steps employers can take to protect their business and their employees.

This does not include how their co-workers productivity is also affected.In addition, when you consider the alarming statistics and numbers of victims, there is an equal number of perpetrators... including in the workplace. EADV helps companies reduce liability and support their employees through training, creating policies, and much more. Domestic Violence IS Everyone's Business!
