On September 19^th, the renown Dr. Jacquelyn Campbell, professor and the Anna D. Wolf Chair at the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing, led a special training on her Danger Assessment for the Maryland Health Care Coalition Against Domestic Violence.  Dr. Campbell reviewed how her team’s groundbreaking research on domestic violence homicide in the Femicide Study led to the development of a Danger Assessment tool, giving survivors and advocates meaningful predictive information about potential lethality in abusive relationships.  The group was able to obtain updates on the research, a first look at some Danger Assessment variants for special populations, new weighted scoring for the instrument, as well as insights directly from the field’s preeminent researcher.  As a result, sixteen participants from different areas in Maryland will be newly certified to administer the assessment.
