💜 Domestic violence is not always physical.

The Power and Control Wheel, developed by the Domestic Abuse Intervention Programs (DAIP) in Duluth, helps illustrate the many tactics an abusive partner may use to gain and maintain control.

Those tactics can include intimidation, emotional abuse, isolation, economic abuse, threats, using children, minimizing or blaming, and other behaviors that restrict another person's freedom and independence.

Throughout Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we’ll take a closer look at several parts of the wheel and what they can look like in everyday relationships.

Recognizing abuse is an important part of supporting survivors and creating safer communities.

We remember Dale Henry Spry and Muse Abdi Afrah, the fifteenth and sixteenth confirmed victims of domestic violence-related homicide in Minnesota in 2026.

Dale Henry Spry was a father to two children. He graduated from North Community High School and served in the Army. He was described as “a big part of the Native American community and the Northside Minneapolis community.” Muse Abdi Afrah previously lived in Tennessee and was described as “a well known man, a nice man.” Multiple people described him as their childhood friend and “like a brother” to them. We remember Dale and Muse.
