An Integrated Approach to Intimate Partner Violence And Reproductive & Sexual Coercion
Domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking are all-too-common experiences for women and teens who are pregnant or have recently given birth. The goal of these guidelines is to present an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to service delivery in order to meet the needs of pregnant and parenting survivors of these forms of victimization. Professionals who have used these practice guidelines say that these innovations help them to do their job more effectively.
