How do we help survivors with safety and recovery from the trauma of violence? Physical, psychological and sexual violence are prevalent problems often affecting women and children; perpetrators are frequently intimates and family. Finding solutions to help survivors and prevent violence requires creativity. Here, I highlight research on domestic and sexual violence with the hope of fostering conversations to help find innovative solutions. I also comment on violence and popular culture.
