The Impact of Financial Abuse on Victims of Domestic Violence

Financial abuse plays a significant role in whether women choose to remain in or leave violent relationships. Victims of financial abuse may face undisclosed debts, secret accounts, and even legal battles that lead to extraordinary debt. Leaving does not necessarily stop the abusive behavior, as financial control can persist for months or even years after the relationship ends.
