Other Titles:	Future interventions with battered women and their families
Authors:	Kelly, Liz
Keywords:	Informal responses
Year:	1996
Publisher:	Sage Publications, Thousand Oaks
Notes:	Whilst most studies exploring women's help-seeking find that relatives and friends, are the most likely sources of immediate and often long-tem support, most domestic violence intiatives concentrate on public institutions and agencies. These neglected informal responses may, however, prove to be a key resource in protecting women and children from domestic violence and also working to prevent this violence. A model is proposed of how these informal responses can be enhanced to achieve this. Author refers mainly to UK research in drawing primarily on a Western perspective .
