This article examines police department interventions and collaborative approaches to recruit intimate partner violence victims at the scene of incidents.
Abstract
In a study to evaluate a collaborative police and social service intervention, researchers asked police officers to recruit intimate partner violence victims at the scene of domestic violence incidents. This article reviews the process of building successful partnerships with police departments as well as the strategies developed with collaborating police departments to create successful recruitment methods and enhance officer and department engagement with recruitment procedures. Over a period of 298 days, 800 victims were referred to the research study. Of these referrals, the researchers were unable to contact 41.3 percent; of those contacted (n = 471), the researchers conducted interviews with 67.73 percent. (Published Abstract)
