Research into Early Detection & Prevention of Domestic Abuse Victim Suicide

The scoping study focuses on early detection and prevention of DA victim suicide, at a local level across Lancashire.

The overarching aims are:

To bring together agencies (police, DA agencies, health, mental health, local authorities and others) across Lancashire to pool knowledge and information, in order to better detect and prevent victim suicide after domestic abuse; and

To identify whether any screening/assessment tools and interventions currently exist which truly identify and intervene with DA victims at highest risk of suicide; or could be adapted to do so.
