FROM THE WOMEN'S COMPLETE HEALTHBOOK Violence and Women By Marjorie Braude, M.D. Stalking. Date Rape. These are frightening new words that have been coined to describe violent offenses against women. Violence in all of its forms has become woven into the everyday fabric of our lives. Every 6 minutes a woman is raped. Every l5 seconds a woman is punched, slapped, kicked, or otherwise physically abused by a man she knows. Every day, approximately four women are murdered by their husbands or boyfriends.

    Extractions: Advocacy and Law Enforcement: Partners Against Domestic Violence By Marie P. Defina and Leonard Wetherbee Law enforcement and social service agencies can work together to provide a and wide range of timely services to victims of domestic violence. Ms. Defina founded the Domestic Violence Training and Resource Institute, in Concord, Massachusetts, and now serves as its executive director. Chief Wetherbee commands the Concord, Massachusetts, Police Department. Domestic disturbances generate some of the most frustrating calls for police officers. Such calls often are repetitious as officers respond to the same homes over and over, take up valuable time that could be spent on other investigative matters, and frequently produce no legal action against offenders. In the late 1980s, increased public awareness that violence in the home is a criminal matter, not a private one, fueled changes in Massachusetts state law.1 Under the revised law, officers no longer are restricted to mediating a volatile situation or merely walking the perpetrator around to cool off. Now, officers may arrest a battering spouse on probable cause. With the burden of pressing charges lifted from the victim, who is often reluctant to proceed against an abusive mate, the number of arrests for domestic violence has increased statewide.2 Other legislative mandates have enhanced law enforcement's efforts to thwart domestic violence. These include: Changes in firearms regulations, which allow for "immediate suspension and surrender (when the order is served) of [the offender's] license to carry firearms and/or [firearms identification] cards as well as any firearms, rifles, shotguns, machine guns, and ammunition...if the plaintiff can demonstrate a substantial likelihood of immediate danger of abuse"3

In addition, we have held meetings with domestic violence advocates, batterer program representatives, and fatherhood program representatives about how to address this issue on a programmatic level. This report represents some of the discussion from two such meetings, which were held in May 2001 and July 2002 in Madison, Wisconsin. These meetings did not exclusively address domestic violence, but rather focused on a variety of issues that fatherhood programs contend with regularly in providing services, including child support and paternity policy, federal public assistance policy (TANF), issues resulting from incarceration, barriers to securing housing, employment and education, and the effects of poverty and

    Extractions: November 1999 Marguerite Roulet The Fatherhood Movement and Domestic Violence During the 1990s, and particularly since the inception of the federal government's Fatherhood Initiative in 1995, much national attention has been devoted to the subject of fatherhood in the United States. Many publications have addressed the topics of contemporary U.S. family structure and fatherhood (see, for example, Blankenhorn 1996, McLanahan and Sandefur 1994, Popenoe 1996, Stacey 1996); much recent legislation has been directed at promoting father involvement and penalizing noninvolvement (most notably, enforcing child support); and government agencies have been mandated to promote policies and initiatives that support father involvement (for example, including low-income noncustodial fathers in welfare-to-work programs). While the expansion of efforts to support father involvement is often met with broad public and political support, several concerns have been raised over the direction and potential impact of these initiatives. These concerns include the re-stigmatization of single mothers and their children, the diversion of resources from custodial mothers and children to noncustodial fathers (e.g., welfare-to-work funds), the erosion of the legal status of custodial mothers as they face new conditions (e.g., changing custody laws in state courts), and additional requirements for low-income mothers receiving public assistance (e.g., cooperating in establishing paternity or facing reduced public assistance).

    Extractions: Zikhethele: Using the Law to end Domestic Violence The Domestic Violence Act 116 of 1998 came into operation on 15 December 1999. This new Act was generally welcomed for trying to fill in gaps in the preceding legislation. Unfortunately, the Act is quite complicated and not always easy to understand. For this reason, the Gender Project, in association with Tshwaranang Legal Advocacy Centre, has produced a booklet to explain the new legal provisions in accessible language. The booklet also sets out other legal options available to victims of domestic violence, such as making a case with police, getting divorced from the abuser and claiming maintenance for young children. Pamphlet produced by the Gender Project, 2000 The Gender Project has produced an information pamphlet which sets out the different ways in which the law can deal with sex work. The pamphlet explains which acts are currently against the law in South Africa, and then briefly defines the different legal options, namely decriminalisation, legalisation and criminalisation. It also explains the practical implications of each legal model. The Gender Project has also completed a paper on the possible implications of legalisation for outdoor sex workers in South Africa.

    Extractions: Acknowledgements This paper is most appropriately considered as a draft in progress. There are several gaps. Nonetheless we hope that these are compensated, at least in part , by the main purpose of the paper which is to raise awareness of this critical but neglected issue. The paper has been continually revised in light of the comments and insights provided by numerous individuals. It is not possible to name them all but particular thanks are owed to Ewan Armstrong, and to colleagues in the UNDP HIV and Development Programme who read and commented on various earlier versions of this paper. "I was not badly wounded, but I was hurt and could not walk properly. I still wonder, even today, if I have been given AIDS. I have never seen a doctor because I have no money." "It is as if we are now beginning a new life. Our past is so sad. We are not understood by society…We are not protected against anything. Widows are without families, without houses, without money. We become crazy. We aggravate people with our problems. We are the living dead.

    Extractions: Position Statement: Because of the prevalence of physical and psychological violence in our society, nurses frequently care for the victims, the perpetrators, and the witnesses of physical and psychological violence. In addition, nurses also may be at risk for experiencing violence in the workplace. As members of the largest group of health care providers, nurses should be aware of assessment methods and nursing interventions that will interrupt and prevent the cycle of violence. In particular, the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) recognizes domestic violence as a special form of violence with a high incidence and prevalence requiring health care interventions. AACN recommends that faculty in educational institutions preparing nurses in baccalaureate and higher-degree programs ensure that the curricula contain opportunities for all students to gain factual information and clinical experience regarding domestic violence. At a minimum, this content should include:
