Power and Control in Family Courts

Divorcing an abusive spouse can be devastating enough for women. But many times the violence and intimidation can spill over into the courtroom during legal proceedings, creating potential new levels of damage to families. Blog Talk Radio host Heather Stark recently interviewed School of Psychology adjunct professor Julie Ancis about her research into this issue during the 3 Women 3 Ways podcast. Ancis is also associate vice president for Institute Diversity.
