Automatic Clare’s Law Disclosures: Instead of placing the burden on victims to ask, we think authorities must proactively inform individuals if their partner has a violent or abusive past.

Fast-Track Legal Protections for Pregnant or Vulnerable Women: we think women who report feeling unsafe—especially during pregnancy or early motherhood—should get immediate access to protective orders, rehousing, and mental health support.

Education on Coercive Control: We think we must teach young people how to spot early signs of coercive, possessive, or manipulative behavior. We think that prevention begins with education.
