Summary
Violence in Gay and Lesbian Domestic Partnerships raises the awareness among social service providers of the real problem of same-sex domestic violence. It then takes the next step and shows the need for specialized services for victims and perpetrators. The contributing authors--clinicians, academics, and activists--give specific suggestions for improving providers' responses to gay and lesbian victims of domestic violence.
