Data Tells a Story: What We Know About Intimate Partner Violence and How it Affects Us All

  • Summary

  • October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Often referred to as intimate partner violence, it affects roughly 48 percent - nearly half- of all women and about 41 percent of all men at least once in their lifetime. In this episode, Dr. Chan is joined by Dr. Cynthia Roberts, senior evaluator from the Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Dr. Samantha Rosenthal, a professor of health science at Johnson & Wales University and adjunct professor of epidemiology at Brown School of Public Health, for a conversation about how data are used to understand some of the causes of intimate partner violence, effective prevention strategies, and the importance of raising awareness.

    If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, please call the 24-hour Rhode Island statewide helpline at 1-800-494-8100 or visit RICADV.org and click on the “Need Help” tab.
