Domestic Violence and the Lifeline to Justice

Domestic Violence and the Lifeline to Justice

In the United States, 1 in 3 people will experience domestic violence in their lives, but very few victims receive the support or resources they need to heal.

The guests on our podcast today, Kimesha Coleman and Shari Ware, are two leaders who are stepping forward to interrupt cycles of harm and destigmatize the shame of domestic violence by providing much-needed support for victims.

In this episode, we talk about the racial disparities that often determine how the justice system responds to victims of domestic violence, the need for funding and programming to be made accessible to under-served communities, and how real accountability can disrupt cycles of abuse and make a massive impact on public safety.
