INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that victims of domestic violence can leave abusers without outside help?
Unclear. Several sources describe barriers victims face in leaving abusers and note that outside support—shelters, policy, professionals—can help them leave sooner or more safely. None directly tests whether victims can leave without any outside help.
