Nearly half of all women and men in the U.S. have experienced psychological aggression by an intimate partner. If you or a friend is feeling unsafe in a potentially dangerous relationship, there s an app that can help. The RUSafe app aims to reach people before they become a statistic by going where they spend much of their time, on their phones.
