The last time I was at the Judicial Complex, I found this business card. Here are the contents verbatim. I hope this helps someone in need.
Do you feel safe at home? Does your partner…
* Monitor your time, your phone calls, conversations or internet use?
* Criticize, belittle or humiliate you?
* Act jealous or possessive?
* Threaten to hurt you, your children, family, friends or pets?
* Blame you for how they feel or act?
* Make you feel you are incapable of making decisions?
* Yell or call you names?
* Hit, slap or push you, your children or pets?
* Throw or destroy things?
* Threaten to take everything including the children, if you leave?
