SAN JOSE — After a drop in domestic violence and abuse claims at the outset of the Bay Area coronavirus sheltering order, South Bay officials and service providers say they have seen reports climb back up as the initial uncertainty from the movement restrictions has given way to people increasingly seeking services again.

Esther Peralez-Dieckmann, executive director of NextDoor Solutions to Domestic Violence, said shelters and service providers for abuse survivors saw a 38% decline in calls in the early days of the regional stay-at-home order that went into effect March 17 and is set to continue through at least the end of May.
