Description
Learn about the connection between domestic abuse and the risk of suicide, how to recognize some warning signs of both and their shared risk factors, such as depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder. You’ll also learn how grief could cause social isolation or a violent relationship to occur behind closed doors, how to approach a friend if they’re contemplating self-harm and where to find support for those experiencing intimate partner violence or who may be at risk for suicide. Host Bruce Moody speaks with Dorie Budde, Domestic Abuse Victim Advocacy Program coordinator for the Air Force Family Advocacy Program; and Retired Chief Master Sgt.
