Title: Developing a National Collaborative Approach to Prevent Domestic Homicides: Domestic Homicide Review Committees
Authors: Jaffe, Peter G, Myrna Dawson & Marcie Campbell
Abstract: Canadian perspectives on domestic homicide review and prevention were discussed at a 2010 national think-tank held in London, Ontario. The think-tank brought together practitioners, researchers, and government officials from 10 provinces and two territories to share regional experiences with domestic homicide reviews, to identify benefits and challenges of conducting reviews for domestic homicide prevention, and to outline promising practices that have been or may be implemented to address challenges. Think-tank members discussed both the differences and similarities of death review processes within individual provinces/territories and emerging issues and concerns around domestic violence death reviews. The final outcome of the think-tank was the identification of next steps in domestic homicide death review and prevention through various recommendations that support the future framework for research and practice in this area.
