American Community (with support from the Vera Institute of
Justice), 2003.
Abstract: To further the understanding of intimate partner violence
among African Americans, Vera collaborated with the Institute
on Domestic Violence in the African American Community to
examine community perceptions of domestic violence by conducting
community assessments in nine cities with high African American
concentrations. The first report of the series, the San Francisco/Oakland
community assessment, draws on unprecedented conversations
with a diverse range of African American community leaders.
African American communities are serving as a catalyst for
change on issues of domestic violence, and this report contains
their recommendations for practitioners, policy makers and
researchers on addressing domestic violence.
