Domestic Violence Questions

    Many of these questions can be answered using material from the textbook, but conduct an Internet searches to deepen your understanding of the issues. 

    • What are the risk factors for domestic violence?
    • For each of the risk factors you listed, provide one idea of how that risk factor could be decreased or prevented.
    • What are the physical needs of victims of domestic violence?
    • What are the psychological needs of victims of domestic violence?
    • What are the barriers that prevent victims of domestic violence from seeking help? 
    • Brainstorm a prevention program that could help prevent domestic violence from starting in the first place.
    • Brainstorm an intervention program that could help prevent further instances of domestic violence in a family once abuse has already occurred (again, take into consideration what you have written on the previous page).
    • Finally, is it possible  to blend your prevention and intervention ideas into one comprehensive program that addresses the problem of domestic violence?
