Fatality reviews are one way that communities come together following a domestic violence homicide. Participants identify ways that systems can improve and strengthen their responses to victims moving forward. Victim service providers have an important role in supporting fatality reviews, and must ensure they participate in line with their confidentiality obligations. Join us as we review what VAWA says about fatality reviews and answer your questions on how victim service providers navigate these spaces.

This session is intended for the staff of state, territory, and tribal coalitions and local victim service providers serving survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking.
