The Councilor for Equality of the Lorca City Council, Antonia Pérez, has taken stock of the actions carried out by the CAVI in Lorca during the first half of 2020. Pérez has analyzed "the data obtained from the Care Center for Victims of Gender Violence of Lorca (CAVI), referring to the period from January 1 to July 30, 2020, with 326 being the number of women attended during this first semester of the year and reaching 2,017 total interventions carried out by the Center team ". The mayor has detailed that "the most attended type of abuse has been psychological abuse with 35 percent, followed by almost equal percentage to that of physical and psychological abuse.
While physical, psychological and sexual character 25 percent percent and 5 percent psychological and sexual.
" Pérez Segura has indicated that "regarding the origin of CAVI users, Spanish nationality is the most representative with 67.5 percent followed by Moroccan and Ecuadorian nationality with 11 and 9 percent, respectively, being the rest of attention to women from Nicaragua, Bolivia, Romania or Colombia ". The Councilor for Equality has reported that "in relation to the age of the users, the most representative range is between 41-50 years, covering about 33 percent of the interventions, followed by that of 31 and 40 years with 27.3 percent; the age range between 21 and 30 17.5 percent; users between 51 and 60 years have accounted for almost 13 percent of care; seven per percent age range between 61 and 70 years, care for young people between 10 and 20 years have accounted for 1.8 percent of interventions and for over 71 years 0.92 percent.
" Pérez has revealed that "with regard to the comparison of women served, it should be noted that in 2020 4.25 percent fewer new users were treated than in 2019.
However, if we compare the data on previously registered users, this year has meant an increase of 15.91 percent compared to 2019 ". The mayor of Equality has remarked that "the total number of users served has increased by 13.6 percent compared to 2019.
A figure that encourages us to continue working on this essential aid, as women find in the CAVI a method to break a life based on fear and oppression, an increase in which it is clear that women have the strength to fight and find absolute support to end situations of abuse that they and their own children experience.
" Antonia Pérez has insisted on "the need for public administrations to continue working in a coordinated manner to end this widespread social scourge such as gender-based violence, it is necessary to continue making all resources available to women who, on a daily basis, they live the hell of abuse in their homes.
