Produktbeschreibung

Hijacked by the Right: Battered Women in America's Culture War addresses the future of battered women services in the United States. The consequences women will suffer if extreme conservatives gain additional power are nothing less than terrifying. The religious Right has already made astounding inroads to turn back the clock to the 1950s. The Family Justice Center Alliance is part of that story. This is a must-read book for all who may be affected by the Family Justice Center co-located services model: domestic violence/sexual assault survivors; DV/SA advocates; social service providers; faith-based organizations; and concerned citizens. It is critical that all have as much information as possible about the potential impact of FJCs on the safety of everyone in their community.
