REVISIT: Dr. Jacquelyn Campbell, Domestic Violence Homicide Risk Factors, the Violence Against Women Act, Abuser Interventions

This week, we’re revisiting a past episode with freshly cleaned-up audio before diving into a brand-new cold case next week. This particular interview is one I’m especially proud of. It was such an honor to speak with someone with such knowledge and dedication to ending domestic violence and pursuing real solutions. I hope you enjoy listening, and as always, I’d love to hear your thoughts!

In this episode, I speak with Dr. Jacquelyn Campbell, a national leader in research and advocacy in the field of domestic and intimate partner violence (IPV). She has authored or co-authored more than 230 publications and seven books on violence and health outcomes. Her studies paved the way for a growing body of interdisciplinary investigations by researchers in the disciplines of nursing, medicine, and public health.

We discuss the Danger Assessment Tool, behaviors indicating a woman is at a heightened risk of being killed by their partner, the problems with current court-mandated programs for abusers, the Violence Against Women Act, and working with President (then-Senator) Biden on the legislation.
