You gave me a new perspective that I hadn't thought bwfore .. the need to protect deaf DV counselors,too, hence the restrictions on VP calls. This brings up another question. Since the deaf community is very small, would it make protecting the identities of DV counselors difficult?

Not Tallie. I agree with MZ - Chris's drug abuse and domestic violence that caused Tallie a great deal of stress and frustration. R, I want to be sure that Chris is to be blamed for Tallie’s death.

DO not rely on the DV agency to reply immediately. Cops are better because they can document any damage, injuries and also give protection to the victim. I can't speak for other agencies, but the agency I volunteer at; usually they don't get direct calls. If there IS an emergency, the victims need to call 911. Cops here knows about the agency and will give the victims the contact information. Most hospitals know as well. Then the victims contacts th. Hotline calls will go to victim advocates and they'd reply asap by TDD or email (if victim has a pager. VP is still too risky unless the VP is at police station (now I wonder if hospitals and police stations have them now?") victim advocates meet them and discuss what they need and what steps they may need. VP *is* helpful but in some ways, it is not especially when it includes domestic violence, HIV or other issues due to risk of identity and confidentiality. Victim advocates keep their identities secret to protect themselves and the clients they work with, but agency employees (like program directors, coordinators, etc) allow VP because they are well known in the community. “What if they need to call DV quickly” Then they need to call 911 promptly.

You seem to think it's my responsibility only, but actually it's everybody's responsibility, including yours. Wolfer, good point. However, it is a fact that many deaf people no longer have ttys, preferring to use vp. What if they need to call DV quickly? R, the fact is that Chris had been know to attack Tallie many times, according to those I spoke with. Unfortunately to the dynamics of chronic drug abuse and domestic violence can render a relationship extremely dysfunctional, causing one's spouse, partner, and children behaving erratically. Since it is a vicious cycle, so many drug treatment programs not only provide, but also require family therapy, too.
