“Family violence, in all its forms, is the single biggest impediment to human development. That's why it can no longer be considered an issue affecting only women and children, or anyone who is abused. As a society we must recognize that family violence acts as a serious, systemic deterrent to healthy human development.” - Hon. Margaret “Norrie” McCain, C.C., O.N.B.
