| dc.description.notes | Abstract: Approximately 1 in 3 women in the US experiences physical violence by an intimate<br/ >partner in her lifetime (CDC, 2010), resulting in over 1,000 deaths every year. In an effort to reduce such fatalities, individual law enforcement agencies across 34 states have implemented the Lethality Assessment Program (LAP), a protocol used to screen the victims of domestic violence and identify those most at risk of being seriously injured or killed by their intimate partners. The high-risk victims are connected to a domestic violence counselor, given a safety plan, and actively encouraged to seek help. This paper studies the effectiveness of this program by exploiting the variation in the timing of implementation of LAP across law enforcement agencies in Maryland, where the program was first developed. Results indicate that the program reduced female homicide victimization by males by 35-45 percent. <br/ >Open source | en |
