| Annotation | Domestic violence can be physical, psychological, emotional, sexual or financial. This report brings together the findings from an evaluation of 27 domestic violence projects funded as part of the Home Office's Crime Reduction Programme (CRP). Examples from these projects illustrate how women can be supported in disclosure, reporting to the police, and prosecution through the courts. Other ways of supporting victims of domestic violence (not all of whom are women) are considered: reducing repeat victimisation; and support through individual work and groupwork. (RH). |
