TI  - The impact of community-based outreach on psychological distress and victim safety in women exposed to intimate partner abuse
N1  - Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2012, 80(2): 211-21
N2  - This is one of the first studies to examine community-based outreach in the context of an interdisciplinary community coordinated response to police-reported IPA. The findings suggest that community-based outreach by victim advocates results in decreased distress levels, greater readiness to leave abusive relationships, and greater perceived helpfulness of services relative to system-based referrals. (From the abstract). Record #3997
