Ep. 16: Why do abusers abuse with Ruth Glenn from the National Coalition Against Domestic Violent (NCADV)
Description
Domestic violence (DV) is a very broad topic that is very complex. I really loved the perspective that I got from this episode, and I am really grateful to interview Ruth Glenn. The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV) is doing amazing work to prevent and bring awareness to domestic violence. The Remember My Name and the Take a Stand for Health Relationships are two great programs the NCADV have, and we touched on these programs briefly in the podcast. Below are the links to all the references mentioned in the podcast and the times stamps. Thank you for listening!
