Become a Silence Breaker of Domestic Violence!
Every 15 seconds a woman is abused in America. It is the most under-reported phenomenon in our society. When I started the Dr. Phil show years ago, I said we were going to talk about the silent epidemics in this country. And now, I am launching a season-long attack on the domestic violence that is destroying the lives of women and children. I am on a mission to expose how far reaching and extensive this problem is, and I pledge to take action against it. Join me!
Take the following pledge on drphil.com
