Resource Type

Book - Parent

Description

"Thanks to the Simpson case, domestic violence is no longer a dirty little secret. It remains, however, a devastating problem, and even more, a deadly killer. What is the answer? In 1994, Lou Brown, father of Nicole Brown Simpson, gave us one solution by establishing a foundation in his daughter's name that provides urgently needed funding to battered women's shelters across the country. Now he goes a step further and, with the help of a like-minded pastor and a legal activist who has been battered, offers hope and practical strategies for combating domestic violence. In a book whose first half is geared to support network people like himself - parents, families, friends, both personal and professional, and acquaintances who can and should make a difference - and whose second half is directed at the victims of abuse, here is an action plan for battered women and those around them." -From the Publisher
