Domestic violence accounts for fifteen percent of all violent crimes, according to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV).

FACE TO FACE: The Domestic Violence Project is a humanitarian program that offers pro bono facial plastic and reconstructive surgery to domestic violence survivors to repair injuries on the face, head and neck caused by an intimate partner or spouse.
