AUTHOR RELEASES NEW BOOK ABOUT HOW DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AFFECTS CHILDREN

Phoenix, AZ -- Author and advocate, Tiffany Mensah has written and released her first book titled, Forgotten: Living in the Shadows of Domestic Violence. It is estimated that globally one billion children are growing up in homes plagued by domestic violence, however to date, awareness of the childhood trauma caused by such sits around 15%.

Why when the numbers are so high, and with so many children at stake are there not more conversations?

Considering how they carry such an emotional burden alongside victims, it seems that these children are oft times forgotten and their stories of survival and resilience are buried deep into the walls of childhood homes and places of abandonment.
