Domestic violence is prevalent among people with disabilities, with specific tactics and consequences important for service providers to understand.  Kelly will detail the unique circumstances faced by domestic violence survivors with disabilities and Deaf survivors, including perpetrator tactics and barriers to receiving services. She will also discuss the complex issue of caregiver abuse.
