Wendy, an attorney and ...

I’m joined by Detective Brandon Wooten to explain how domestic violence high-risk teams (DVHRTs) are changing what happens before the worst day, using evidence-based lethality assessment and a coordinated response that actually moves cases forward. We dig into the DVHRT model step by step: how teams identify high-risk domestic violence cases early, connect s...
