Your Call

Anti-violence programs for men aim to reduce domestic abuse and familicide

On this edition of Your Call, we welcome back Rachel Louise Snyder, author of No Visible Bruises: What We Don’t Know About Domestic Violence Can Kill Us. We’ll discuss anti-violence programs for men, including one called Resolve to Stop the Violence, which began in a San Bruno jail. 

Synder says we can’t expect every program to work the first, second, or even the third time, but we can’t stop. What’s the alternative?
