    Extractions: Agency: State Police Domestic Violence Domestic violence impacts Michigan families and communities at all levels. People across the entire spectrum, from infancy to the elderly, are the victims of this crime. It is not limited to any race, age, sexual orientation, socioeconomic class, educational level, or occupation. According to the Michigan State Police Criminal Justice Information Center, 41,822 people were reported as victims of domestic violence in 1999. We can be encouraged that this is down from 47,499 in 1998, but the numbers are still staggering. In 1999, 31 people were killed as a result of domestic violence. WHAT IS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: Michigan law requires that you have a "special" relationship with another individual to be considered "domestic" in nature. A special relationship between assailant and victim is defined as spouse, former spouse, resident, former resident, or they have a child in common. The "Power and Control Wheel" shows how batterers use different tactics to manipulate their environment and control their partners.

    Extractions: Introduction Scope Of Problem What Can Parents Do To Help their Children ... Where To Go For More Information Bullying What is Bullying? Bullying is usually defined as intentional, repeated, hurtful acts, words, or other behavior committed by one or more children against another. It may be physical, verbal, emotional, or sexual in nature, and unfortunately it is quite common - approximately 7 million bullying incidents take place in our nation's schools each year. Bullying victims can suffer far more than physical harm. Grades may suffer because attention is drawn away from learning, and this fear may lead to truancy or dropping out. Victims may become withdrawn and depressed, and if the problem persists, they may feel compelled to take drastic measures, such as fighting back, carrying a weapon, or even suicide. Bullies themselves are also at risk for long-term negative outcomes. Several studies suggest that bullying in early childhood may be an early sign of the development of violent tendencies, delinquency, and other criminal behavior. Educators, parents, and children concerned with violence prevention must also be concerned with bullying and its link to other violent behaviors.

    Extractions: Working with Law Enforcement in the Fight for a Safer America The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence and its sister organization, The Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence have worked closely with law enforcement for the past 25 years to reduce gun related injuries and deaths in America. The Brady Campaign was founded in 1974 as Handgun Control. Since 1983, the Center to Prevent Handgun Violence has worked closely with law enforcement to educate the general public about the issues surrounding gun violence in the United States. In 2001, Law Enforcement Relations staff was proud to announce a new beginning in the fight for a safer America with the introduction of our new names: The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence and the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence. The LER staff continues its commitment to support law enforcement in its goal of protecting American communities from gun violence. America's law enforcement knows the importance of common sense gun legislation that is designed to keep guns out of the wrong hands (violent criminals, felons and children) combined with laws that are strong and enforceable. The new Brady organizations agree that the laws that exist today should be enforced. Unfortunately because of the many loopholes in our laws, prosecutors are reluctant to take criminal cases into the courtroom, knowing they will never make it through the rigors of trial.

    Extractions: Meet the LER Staff Message to Law Enforcement LER Home A MESSAGE TO LAW ENFORCEMENT We deeply appreciate all the work you do to make our communities safer. The Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, Law Enforcement Relations (LER) department has been working with law enforcement agencies across America on gun violence prevention programs since 1983. You may know us as the Center to Prevent Handgun Violence. The LER staff is available to work with you to promote safe and responsible storage of firearms in your community. This website includes several resources for law enforcement to use in reducing gun violence. All of these resources are provided to law enforcement without charge. Every year in America more than 30,000 individuals die as a result of gun violence. Additionally, each day in America as many as 10 children die as a result of firearm related accidents, assaults and suicides, many of which are preventable. One common characteristic in almost all gun related deaths of children is the immediate accessibility of guns. LER works with law enforcement by providing gun violence prevention and safety education materials to help educate the community about responsible gun ownership. These proactive measures can help to reduce gun related injuries and deaths in your community.

Parents, students, and school officials can take steps toward reducing violence in schools by responding to children's emotional and psychological needs and by implementing violence prevention programs. Safety Tips Preventing Youth Violence To help prevent violence in schools, follow these tips adapted from the American Psychological Association's Teach Children to Resist Violence and from the U.S. Departments of Education and Justice's A Guide for Safe Schools: Early Warning, Timely Response. For Parents: Give your children consistent love and attention. Every child needs a strong, loving, relationship with a parent or other adult to feel safe and secure and to develop a sense of trust. Children learn by example, so show your children appropriate behavior by the way you act. Settle arguments with calm words, not with yelling, hitting, slapping, or spanking. If you punish children by hitting, slapping, or spanking them, you are showing them that it is okay to hit others. Talk with your children about the violence they see on TV, in video games, at school, at home, or in the neighborhood. Discuss why violence exists in these contexts and what the consequences of this violence are.

Brief descriptions of each amici is provided in the Appendix. INTRODUCTION ARGUMENT The significance of the trial court's decision is not limited to this particular case. The trial court's shifting of liability - if permitted - will be repeated in every case involving the duty to protect, since the duty to protect is only implicated in cases where intervening tortfeasors have succeeded in their attempts to harm the person cooperating with the police. In each of these cases, courts and juries will have the opportunity, if not the obligation, to apportion liability to the intervening tortfeasors and thereby shift liability away from negligent public officials, exactly the way the trial court has done in this case. By allowing the trial court's apportionment of damages to stand, this Court will substantially undermine the effectiveness of the duty to protect for all future cases.

    Extractions: November 20, 2002 Studies for Workplace Violence Prevention Funded Under Five New NIOSH Grant Awards The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) awarded five new grants to fund research for the prevention of workplace violence. The grants total approximately $1.8 million and are funded as part of a $2 million Fiscal Year 2002 Workplace Violence Initiative, in which Congress directed NIOSH to develop intramural and extramural research targeting workplace violence. Four of the studies will focus on identifying risk factors for workplace violence in diverse occupational groups (social service workers, health-care employees, police officers, and long-haul truckers), and the fifth will focus on research to increase the identification of domestic violence in the workplace. All of the projects address research priorities identified in recommendations from a workshop of experts from industry, labor, government, and academia, held in April 2000. The workshop was co-sponsored by the University of Iowa Injury Prevention Research Center and NIOSH. According to recent data, 677 workplace homicides occurred in 2000, and 1.7 million workers are injured every year in non-fatal workplace assaults. In 1996, NIOSH suggested strategies for preventing incidents of workplace violence, and noted that more research was needed to better identify risk factors and assess interventions.

Intimate partners may be heterosexual or of the same sex. Some of the common terms used to describe intimate partner violence are domestic abuse, spouse abuse, domestic violence, courtship violence, battering, marital rape, and date rape (Saltzman et al. 1999). CDC uses the term “intimate partner violence” because it describes violence that occurs within all intimate relationships. Some of the other terms overlap and mean other forms of violence—including abuse of elders, children, and siblings.

    Extractions: November 1, 1979 The UCD Rape Prevention Education Program is part of a system-wide Rape Prevention Education Program; that is there exists sister programs on all nine of the University of California campuses. The original concept for the program was developed in 1976 at which time a Rape Prevention Education Program was instituted on he University of California, Berkeley campus under the direction of Ms. Maria Sakovich. In 1978 Ms. Sakovich together with Chief William Beall Jr., system-wide Police Services Coordinator who also operates out of the UC Berkeley campus, began to explore possible sources of outside funding for the program. In an attempt to realize this aim, Ms. Sakovich and Mr. Beall collaborated on the writing of a grant which they then submitted to the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration in hopes of gaining funding for the UCB Rape Prevention Education Program. The Law Enforcement Assistance Administration (LEAA) responded to the effect that, while they would not consider funding a program that was limited to a single University of California campus, they would consider funding a system-wide Rape Prevention Education Program. Consequently the grant was revised to include the creation of similar programs on each of the University of California campuses and was resubmitted. In advocating the University of California as an organization/institution qualified to administer a Rape Prevention Education Program, the grant stated the following reasons;
