It is the #1 reason victims feel trapped in abusive relationships.Common forms of narcissistic economic abuse include:Debt Traps – Forcing victims to take out loans or credit cards in their name, burdening them with debt.Financial Gaslighting – Making victims believe they are “bad with money” to justify taking total control.Career Sabotage – Discouraging victims from working or creating workplace drama that leads to job loss.Restricted Access – Controlling bank accounts, cutting off financial resources, and withholding money as punishment.

Karina's Bill was passed by the Illinois General Assembly last Tuesday, closing a loophole that allowed those accused of domestic violence to keep their guns. The measure is named in honor of Karina Gonzalez, a woman from Little Village who – along with her daughter, 15 – was fatally shot by her husband in July 2023. To learn more about what the legislation changes in Illinois, Reset sits down with two advocates who work closely with survivors of domestic violence: Stephanie Love-Pattersono, CEO of The National Network to End Domestic Violence; and Maralea Negron, director of policy, advocacy and research at The Network.

Joining us for the conversation, are Chris Negris, the Associate Director of Public Policy Strategies at the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence, and Anisa Ali, Program Manager of Health at Futures without Violence.

97% of domestic violence survivors say that concern about leaving a pet was a factor in their decision to leave an abusive situation. Yet, only 17% of domestic violence shelters accept pets.   Emergency sheltering for victims of domestic violence is a critical need. Not everyone has access to the homes of family or friends as a means to find safety.       Not enough shelters in New Jersey allow pets. And that needs to change.     This is an issue the Community Foundation of New Jersey has leaned into thanks to a generous donor, Karen Lindemann, who left CFNJ a bequest that was designed to ensure that considerations around pets would not stop survivors from seeking help. In Karen's memory, the Community Foundation has launched an ambitious goal to ensure that at least one domestic violence shelter in each of New Jersey's 21 counties is outfitted to include survivors and their pets.  Important Links:    New Jersey Coalition to End Domestic Violence https://njcedv.org/ 180 Turning Lives Around https://redrover.org/the-purple-leash-project/ Red Rover https://redrover.org/ Red Rover Purple Leash Project https://redrover.org/the-purple-leash-project/ 20 by 2025 - 25% of domestic violence shelters become pet friendly by 2025 https://25by2025.org/ NJ Statewide Domestic Violence Helpline: 1-800-572-SAFE (7233)

Women make up 35% of California's homeless population, and domestic violence is a leading reason why women lose their housing. For those who do manage to escape, it's confusing and often impossible to get help. Now some are calling for more gender-conscious policy. Organizations across California are coming together to address this issue, break down silos and bring survivors into decision-making. But their work is in danger. This July, VOCA (the federal Victims of Crimes Act), which funds everything from crisis hotlines to transitional housing, is slated to lose 45% of its funding. What can be done? Laura Flanders is joined by Teniecka Drake, a US Air Force veteran, and Yenni Rivera Martinez, two survivors of domestic violence-related homelessness who now work as advocates, and Krista Colón, the Senior Director of Public Policy for the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence. How does housing policy need to change? And what difference does applying a gender lens make? And later in the show Laura shares some closing thoughts on the cruel punishment case involving a homeless woman that is currently before the Supreme Court.“The lack of housing for survivors and the struggles of survivors navigating the homelessness system is a commonality shared all across the state. [The HOME Cohort is] bringing folks together to work on shared solutions . . . They've produced tools for survivors . . .” - Krista Colón“See the person, not just the data. The data is attached to a person. In order to make the proper policies, you need to know who you're affecting, your constituents. You need to know who they are.” - Teniecka Drake"You don't end up with zero, you end up with negative because now you're borrowing money, especially once you have a baby. How do you get formula? How do you get diapers? How do you get clothing?” - Yenni Rivera MartinezGuests:• Krista Colón: Senior Director of Public Policy & Communications Strategies, California Partnership to End Domestic Violence • Teniecka Drake: Survivor Advocates Team, Rainbow Services• Yenni Rivera Martinez: Family System CES Coordinator, LAHSA (Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority); Survivor Advocate, California Partnership to End Domestic Violence Full Episode Notes are located HERE.  They include related episodes, articles, and more.Music In the Middle: Eric Kupper remix of “U Try Livin' Pressure” by Black Guy White Guy and 808 BEACH featuring Anelisa Lamola related by The Red Hot Organization.  "Steppin" and "The Gall" by Podington Bear.

It is about power, and includes any sexual behavior performed without a partner's consent. Examples include: Forcing a partner to have sex with other people (human trafficking) Pursuing sexual activity when the victim is not fully conscious or is afraid to say no Hurting partner physically during sex Coercing partner to have sex without protection / sabotaging birth control TECHNOLOGICAL ABUSE This form of abuse includes the use of technology to control and stalk a partner. Technological abuse can happen to people of all ages, but it is more common among teenagers who use technology and social media in interact in a manner often unmonitored by adults. Examples include: Hacking into a partner's email and personal accounts Using tracking devices in a partner's cell phone to monitor their location, phone calls and messages Monitoring interactions via social media Demanding to know partner's passwords Click here to learn how to protect yourself from technological abuse (provided by the National Network to End Domestic Violence). FINANCIAL ABUSE Any behavior that maintains power and control over finances constitutes financial abuse. Examples include causing a partner to lose their job through direct and indirect means, such as: Inflicting physical harm or injury that would prevent the person from attending work Harassing partner at their workplace Controlling financial assets and effectively putting partner on an allowance Damaging a partner's credit score ABUSE BY IMMIGRATION STATUS There are specific tactics of abuse that may be used against immigrant partners, including: Destroying immigration papers Restricting partner from learning English Threatening to hurt partner's family in their home country Threatening to have partner deported It is important to remember that in the U.S. undocumented immigrants have rights and protections, and that in the case of an emergency, contacting the police should be a priority.” -https://www.womenagainstabuse.org/education-resources/learn-about-abuse/types-of-domestic-violence.

The advent of technology has created both advantages and challenges for people trying to protect themselves from harmful situations. Being aware of the capabilities of the technology around us, the data that can be collected, and how it can be accessed can lead us to being physically safer. Today's guest is Audace Garnett. Audace provides assistance nationally and internationally supporting crime victims and domestic violence survivor organizations. She worked at the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office where she served as Teen Services Coordinator in the Victim Services Unit. She is current a Technology Safety Project Manager with Safety Net at the National Network to End Domestic Violence, where she focuses specifically on the intersection between domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and technology.  Show Notes: [1:12] - Audace shares what she does with Safety Net and the National Network to End Domestic Violence. [5:18] - 97% of cases include tech misuse, but Audace explains that domestic violence is very underreported. [8:06] - Technology is not the problem. It's the person behind the technology that is causing harm. [9:22] - A common problem is the sharing of images without consent. Victims can report this to StopNCII.org. [11:42] - Survivors should trust their instincts. [13:17] - Audace shares some tips on protecting online identification. [15:54] - A major and unfortunately common concern and problem is location tracking through mobile devices. [18:25] - Tracking devices like Airtags and apps on smartphones can alert abusers of your location. [20:33] - Some vehicles also come with integrated GPS tracking. [22:14] - Although these services and tracking/monitoring devices can be used maliciously, the technology itself is not the problem. [24:20] - Another technology misuse possibility is abusers interacting in a victim's social media platform as the victim. [25:56] - The impact of this interferes greatly with day to day life. [28:11] - The Domestic Abuse Hotline is a space to not only report domestic violence, but they can also help with support, resources, and a plan. [30:20] - How can community members help with this problem and build awareness? Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

There are many layers to liberation from domestic abuse. Each person's path is different and complex. Through the work of the Maine Coalition to End Domestic Violence, and its member Domestic Violence Resource Centers, survivors receive a comprehensive array of support and resources.  DVRC advocates work closely with survivors to develop safety plans and reduce barriers that stand in the way of achieving safety. One program, The Liberation Fund, complements these services, enabling advocates to help in immediate and practical ways. This can be a key component of a survivor's ability to enact their safety plan and establish freedom. Since 2020, more than 800 survivors across Maine have benefited from the Liberation Fund.Many survivors who leave an abusive partner do so without the basic necessities that will allow them to provide for themselves and their children, such as clothing, food, and personal documents. Starting over can be further complicated when a survivor does not have furniture, appliances, or other items that help make a new house become a home. The Liberation Fund provides for these personal needs, offering survivors and their children immediate relief and support.Today I will be talking with Francine Garland Stark, the Executive Director of the Maine Coalition to End Domestic Violence, Missy, and Maggie who have generously agreed to share the personal stories of their journey to liberation.Helpline Numbers for MaineStatewide Domestic Abuse Helpline: 1-866-834-HELPDeaf or Hard of Hearing: 1-800-437-1220National Helpline800-799-7233Links to Check Out:Maine Coalition to End Domestic Violence (MCEDV) WebsiteDonate to the Liberation Fund and Maine Coalition to End Domestic ViolencePowerful Short Video and Information about the Liberation FundFollow Daughters of Change:Website:Facebook:InstagramLinkedInMarie's LinkedIn:Daughters of Change Podcast Producer:  Sarah StaceySarah's LinkedIn Profile

In this episode, we delve into the tragic story of Tatiana Dokhotaru, a 34-year-old woman who lost her life in a heartbreaking case of domestic violence. Joining us today is Amber, Tatiana's best friend, who provides us with a firsthand account of the events leading up to this devastating incident. Tatiana Dokhotaru's life took a dark turn when she made a distress call to the emergency services. However, due to the lack of specific details provided during the call, the police were unable to pinpoint her location among the 297 units in the tower block in Liverpool. It took nearly 24 hours before Tatiana's body was discovered in her Sydney apartment, thanks to the alertness of a concerned neighbor. The primary suspect in this case is Danny Zayat, Tatiana's estranged partner. He is currently in custody, facing charges related to domestic violence, including assault, stalking, and causing damage to property. However, the investigation is still ongoing, with the police treating Tatiana's death as suspicious. The response of the authorities to the initial distress call has raised significant questions about the effectiveness of their actions. A critical incident investigation has been launched to examine the response and determine the identity of the anonymous caller. The scrutiny of the police's handling of the situation is necessary to prevent similar tragedies in the future. During the bail hearing, Zayat's family displayed disturbing behavior, leaving Tatiana's friend feeling terrified and trapped. However, the denial of bail for Zayat provided a sense of relief for Tatiana's family, as it restored their faith in the justice system. Tatiana Dokhotaru was a beautiful, kind, and compassionate person, as described by her friend Amber. Her tragic story serves as a reminder of the urgency to address and end domestic violence. It is crucial that we take action to support victims, raise awareness about the signs of abuse, and promote healthy relationships.

In 1998, Rita Smith had her very first conversation with leaders of the National Football League (NFL) about the role the league can play in addressing domestic violence and sexual assault offenses committed by its players. It took 15 years, numerous allegations of intimate partner abuse against football players, and a lot of persistence from Smith and others for the league to take action. The turning point was the Ray Rice incident of 2014. Since that time, the NFL has retained Rita Smith as a Senior Advisor and together they have worked to not only bring awareness to the prevalence of domestic violence and sexual assault but also to hold football players accountable for their actions in meaningful ways. What's more, with its worldwide following, the NFL has an opportunity to usher in a game-changing culture shift as a role model for healthy relationships, equitable opportunities, and community safety. In this episode, we explore with Senior Advisor to the NFL Rita Smith what's changed and what it will take to coach America's most popular sports league from the sidelines to the all-star champions of the movement to end domestic violence and sexual assault.Rita Smith has been a Senior Advisor to the National Football League since September 2014 working with them on their efforts to address domestic violence and sexual assault. Ms. Smith began working in the violence against women space as a crisis line advocate in a shelter for battered women and their children in Colorado in 1981. Later, she served as the Executive Director of the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence for nearly 22 years.

Technology is intimately intertwined with our daily lives and for people in abusive relationships, the internet and social media can become a perpetrator's playground. Case in point: according to expert in tech-enabled abuse Adam Dodge, "The average person has 80 apps on their phone and 90 online accounts. That's 170 different ways that somebody can reach out and monitor you, impersonate you, threaten you, stalk you, steal sensitive information and post it online, cause financial harm, send you unwanted photos, steal photos and post them online. The list goes on and on." And yet, Dodge also rightly points out that "in order to survive and thrive in the modern era you have to exist online." Fortunately, there are substantive actions everyone can take to safeguard their personal information and there are laws in place that protect individuals from tech-enabled abuse. In this episode, we expose the hazards of living in an online world while demystifying the process of creating a digital safety plan, the importance of collecting evidence of technology abuse, and how we might create a legal system that allows these crimes to be properly investigated.Adam Dodge, a licensed attorney in California, is the founder of EndTAB (Ending Tech-Enabled Abuse) and spends a great deal of his time delivering innovative technology-enabled abuse trainings and presentations to organizations, nonprofits and governments around the world. Mr. Dodge's work is characterized by his dedication to addressing the existing and future threats posed by technology to victims of crime and gender-based violence. He has written and presented extensively on cyberstalking, technology-enabled abuse, non-consensual pornography and co-authored a domestic violence advisory on the emerging threat of ‘deepfakes.' Mr. Dodge is also a special advisor to the Coalition Against Stalkerware and sits on the World Economic Forum's Digital Justice Advisory Committee. Dedicated to advancing impact legislation and public policy, he is also a member of the Policy Advisory Council for the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence.

One benefit to normalizing men's mental health is a decrease is domestic violence, also called Interpersonal Violence (IPV.) Imagine a world where men are free to process every human emotion without embarrassment or fear! We can create such a world, beginning today. Let's talk about it! -

Stalking is a pattern of behavior directed at a specific person that causes a reasonable person to fear for their safety or the safety of others. And each year, over 13 million people experience it in various ways - being followed, receiving unwanted communications or gifts, through social media, and more. And when the stalker is a former intimate partner, post-separation abuse can materialize as stalking. Rachel Gibson of the National Center for Victims of Crime leads us through the realities of stalking, its prevalence, how it manifests, how it impacts victims, how technology is weaponized by stalkers, and the steps we can take to counter these unwanted behaviors. Rachel Gibson is the Director of the Center for Victim Service Professionals at the National Center for Victims of Crime, where she works to further the mission by supporting and overseeing NCVC's programs for victim service professionals, providing training and technical assistance.

On the day after Halloween we explore the horror of “Permitless Carry,” the latest madness following the Supreme Court's attack on state's rights to regulate firearms for the safety of their citizenry. “Permitless Carry” is just what it sounds like, you need no qualifications to buy or carry a gun. No background check, no training, and no need for a license. Texas has already passed this law and Georgia and many other states are soon to follow. Okay Public Servants! Time to step up and protect children, minorities, LBGT communities and women from the relentless proliferation of weapons and violence in our communities. The silence is deafening. Host Sarah Germain Lilly lays out the issue and some of its consequences; for example a young girl who was killed when a man opened fire during a robbery. We continue to honor Domestic Violence Awareness month with words from Jay W. Walker during an event held by WARM, We All Really Matter, and their Harlem March to End Domestic Violence. Sean Stephanic contributes the In Memoriam, honoring Nicole Connors, 52 years old, 10/13/22, Raleigh, North Carolina.
