Has your community or jurisdiction suffered a domestic violence-related firearm homicide in the past five years? If so, staff at the Battered Women’s Justice Project’s Safer Families, Safer Communities, a project of the National Resource Center on Domestic
Violence and Firearms, would like to hear from you about your community’s experiences healing from such a tragedy.<br>
<br>
Safer Families, Safer Communities supports comprehensive implementation and enforcement of domestic violence (DV) firearm prohibitions at all levels of government; the project is currently seeking input and guidance from advocates, law enforcement, prosecutors,
judges, probation/parole officers or others who are involved in the criminal legal system’s response to DV-related homicides. Project staff seek to understand how departments, agencies, and other entities currently respond to DV homicides, particularly those
committed with firearms. Specifically, we would like to know what resources were most helpful in the aftermath of the homicide, what resources you needed but did not have access to, and if you would be willing to share your experience with other communities.<br>
<br>
Persons interested in speaking with our staff should contact Marijka Muras, Training and Technical Assistance Specialist with BWJP at 612-824-8768 x 113 or </span><span style="font-family:"Segoe UI","sans-serif""><a href="mailto:mmuras@bwjp.org" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;color:#0072BC">mmuras@bwjp.org</span></a></span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Segoe UI","sans-serif";color:#1A1A1A">.</span><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
