dc.description.notes | A new project by PERF has found that the police response to domestic violence has undergone fundamental changes over the last 20 years, and today's law enforcement<br/ >agencies are continuing to develop new approaches to protecting victims and preventing abuse. However, PERF also found that much work remains to be done, because domestic<br/ >violence too often remains the "hidden crime," committed behind closed doors, and thus does not receive the same level of focus as crimes that are committed in public.<br/ >PERF conducted a survey of 358 law enforcement agencies about their domestic<br/ >violence investigations. It asked for statistical data as well as descriptive information about innovative strategies and programs. PERF researchers then used the survey results<br/ >to conduct telephone interviews of police officials to obtain more detailed information about their best practices. Many of the most promising programs involve cooperation between<br/ >police and victim services groups. | en |
