For the president of the Association of Homes for Women Victims of Domestic Violence, Chloé Lauzon-Rivard's entourage must not hold themselves responsible for what happened.
It's important that loved ones not blame themselves, because there are so many strategies from the spouse, so much manipulation in domestic violence, that it doesn't show.
A quote from Annick Brazeau, president of the Group of houses for women victims of domestic violence
According to her, the Signs can often be very subtle, for example isolation, stress, increased fatigue or change in behavior.
According to the Association of Homes for Women Victims of Domestic Violence, seven feminicides occurred in the context of domestic violence in 2023.
According to Isabelle Boisclair, professor at the University of Sherbrooke, citizens, without necessarily witnessing direct violence, must intervene when they notice manifestations of control exercised by a spouse. They must also remain critical of representations conveyed in cultural works.
We see it in the films: women […] experience [breakups] in sadness, but men experience them in violence.
A quote from Isabelle Boisclair, professor at the University of Sherbrooke
According to her, it is important to emphasize the fact that it is possible for both men and women to have a happy life after a breakup, despite mourning and initial pain.
She believes that those around her, including male models, need to talk more about how they got through this difficult time.
Isabelle Boisclair also wants the victims not& #x27;don't be ashamed to seek help since there are many aid organizations.
I think we need to send the message that they can and that they must save themselves, the professor thinks.
It's not shameful to present to a shelter. You must be proud to save yourself.
A quote from Isabelle Boisclair, professor at the University of Sherbrooke
In 2021 and 2022, 2,700 women were housed in the 43 homes for women victims of domestic violence in Quebec.
A resident of the region had also issued a warning just a few days ago. Laury Choinière, from Bromont, seriously injured in a context of domestic violence, called on victims to file a complaint and distance themselves from a violent spouse. This message should resonate, according to Professor Isabelle Boisclair.
