Domestic violence and abuse are a broad term. It can mean a lot of different things, right. It could be stalking, it could be harassment, it could be threats to a former partner, it could be abuse perpetrated by a cohabitant, a roommate. So it can mean a lot of different things, and to me what that means is that people are reaching out for help in those really dangerous situations.
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought a unique set of challenges, especially for survivors of domestic violence. In this compelling episode of 'Healthy Mind Matters', host Maria Shilaos sits down with Jennifer Oxborrow, the Executive Director of the Utah Domestic Violence Coalition, to discuss the increased risks and available resources for those affected by domestic violence during these trying times. With a staggering 33% rise in domestic violence calls, this conversation couldn't be more timely or necessary.
Jennifer sheds light on the factors that contribute to domestic violence in Utah, such as financial dependence, the wage gap, and high birth rates. She also emphasizes the critical role of community-based programs and law enforcement in providing support and safety for survivors. This episode goes beyond just discussing the problem; it offers practical advice on safety planning and accessing resources.
Whether you're directly affected or know someone who is, this episode is packed with valuable information that could make a difference. Maria and Jennifer's discussion is both hopeful and informative, aiming to provide support and education to those in need. Tune in to learn how to navigate these difficult times and find the help you need.
