I’m headed to the 216 for some quality family time, to practice a little self-care of my own in the wake of some very trying times. I leave you with this blog post over at Psychology Today by Olga Trujillo: Getting Through Sex Abuse Scandals and Depression.

I spent several days this week teaching for the Marine Corps; one day with the prosecutors and one day with defense. So I definitely have been thinking about the issue of sexual assault in the military and their criminal justice response. But it’s more than just training JAGs; it’s also several items that have come [...]

Several folks sent me this yesterday, and I see it making the rounds on Twitter and Facebook. I just got around to reading it this morning. If you have not seen it yet, please read Tyler Perry’s Open Letter to a Penn State 11-Year Old published this week in Newsweek.

November 25th begins 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence. From the site: Participants chose the dates November 25- International Day Against Violence Against Women-and December 10- International Human Rights Day- in order to symbolically link violence against women and human rights and to emphasize that such violence is a violation of human rights. This 16-day period [...]

Get on over to the VAWnet blog for a great post on an important question: How do I know that the statistics I’m using are credible? While this doesn’t speak to one of the main ways *we* use stats (in court), it provides excellent guidance on evaluating research, and the information applies nonetheless. Please distribute [...]

Montreal was a whirlwind: exhausting, rejuvenating, exciting…Thanks to everyone who sought me out to talk to me about FHO. Did you know we have almost 500 regular subscribers? And countless more who just stop by to read at their leisure? I love that this site has introduced me to so many new colleagues and friends. Thanks [...]

We were talking health policy at dinner last night, and the subject of health care reform came up. Our very plugged in lobbyist mentioned that the Kaiser Family Foundation had created a cartoon that explains the issue beautifully (a la Schoolhouse Rocks). I’m on my iPad today so I can’t actually embed it, but to [...]

At last, a concise beginner’s primer on using social media in healthcare. For those of you who are hesitant to wade into social media, or aren’t sure about the different types of social media available, this is a good place to start. It also contains a brief section on the medical ethics of social media, [...]

Another new eLearning tool: NSVRC and VAWnet have released an online module on marital rape. It’s definitely worth the time, and be sure to check out the resources listed in the final slide. It’s intended for a multidisciplinary audience, so please share with your SARTs and domestic violence multidisciplinary response teams.

The folks at MINCAVA have a new online learning module, Honor Our Voices: Children’s Perspectives of Domestic Violence. I haven’t had a chance to go through it yet, but it’s looks fascinating. You can read a full description about the new learning tool after the jump.
