This website addressed this topic in August.  See NIFL-WOMENLIT archives for 
#'s 2992, 2989, 2987, 2986 on August 26, 27 and 29th.  You are not jumping 
to conclusions - statistics will prove that.
Please see these two websites are great starting points to help this young 
woman:
National Coalition Against Domestic Violence  http://www.ncadv.org
National Domestic Violence Hotline  http://www.ndvh.org/   The Hotline 
Advocates can refer callers
to legal agencies in their local area.
The WV Library Commission and the WV Coalition Against Domestic Violence are 
placing informational display kits in public libraries so community and 
civic organizations, adult education and literacy classrooms, etc. can check 
the kits out of the public library and have a local advocate come and 
present a short seminar on the topic.

Good luck.

>A teacher who lurks on the listserv asked me to post this for her:
