Domestic Violence Tools/Resources

1. Susan Murphy Milano has been a voice for Renee. She is an Intimate Partner Specialist with over 20 years experience in helping women in domestic violence and stalking relationships, and speaking up for those who have been murdered as a result of these relationships. She offers tools and resources to help women in these situations:

TIME'S UP BOOK - http://www.susanmurphymilano.com/ contains links for book TIME'S UP, which is a guide for women to safely leave the relationships.

EVIDENTIARY ABUSE AFFADAVIT - See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eObfB43uFsg for a sample which can be used to give the victim a voice in the event that she is killed, rather than it being deemed hearsay. In Renee's case, if she had made one of these, her killer would no doubt be behind bars.

TECHNOLOGY - http://www.forbes.com/sites/crime/2011/10/30/new-technology-for-domestic-violence-and-stalking-victims/ speaks about new technology for DV and/or stalking relationships. The technology will be available as a downloadable application from the Apple App Store on December 25. Stay tuned.

2. Safe Haven Ministries http://www.safehavenministries.org/

Safe Haven Ministries is located in Grand Rapids and offers confidential emergency shelter for women and children fleeing domestic violence; support groups, individual counseling, and advocacy for women and children who do not require shelter; and prevention and outreach programs for the entire community.

3. WHY DOES HE DO THAT? Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men by Lundy Bancroft

Renee was reading this at the time of her death. Excellent book to help understand the abusive man, and how to safely deal with him.

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer...
