(Garland, TX) - Every year, domestic violence contributes an estimated $8 billion in productivity losses to companies and businesses around the country. The effects of stalking, physical assault, rape, and homicide are directly related to employee absenteeism, diminished job performance, and lower job morale.

For the cost of $10 per person, attendees will receive the training necessary to recognize signs of domestic violence and to implement a family violence prevention program in their own workplace.
