Ep 123: No Accountability for Abusers: Is There Anything a Survivor of Domestic Violence Can Do to Change This?

Are awareness and education the best option for decreasing the rates of domestic violence and coercive control?While it is important, we have been bringing awareness to the public since 1987 and it doesn’t feel like a lot has changed.What I believe will have the most impact is accountability for those that perpetrate family violence and coercive control on others? And I am not the only one.  But why isn’t it happening?In this episode of The Rising Beyond Podcast, I share my thoughts on why there is consistently no accountability for abusers in our larger systems and what you can do to improve the chances of seeing accountability in your case.We are focusing on the things that are within your control, looking at the logistical things that will make it more likely for your abuser to be held accountable to some extent and things you can do to take care of yourself during this journey when so much is outside of your control.Please leave us a review or rating and follow/subscribe to the show.
