• Know what sets the abuser off-be aware of signs or clues that could trigger a reaction.
• Have a code word with family and friends that lets them know if you contact them using this word they should immediately contact the police.
• Always be prepared to leave-make sure you have a bag packed, cash, important phone numbers, medications, and children’s things packed and hidden where you can grab in a moment’s notice.
• Keep your cell phone charged at all times
• Be careful on the computer with instant messages, chats, emails, anything that can be perceived as a threat to the abuser or set off the abuser.
• Memorize emergency phone numbers and shelter locations so you don’t need to search for them if you are in a hurry.
• Arrange a safe place to stay-make sure you have a place to go if you leave and go immediately there.
• Take a self defense class they are often held at local colleges or places at a very low cost.
