V3223 Why She Stays: A Dilemma Faced By Service Providers (video, 25 minutes)
Why do women return, time and time again, to an abusive partner? This frequently asked
question is both puzzling and confusing to most professionals who provide helping
services to battered women. This video explores the frustrations experienced by the
police, the Courts, medical personnel and victim assistance workers as they attempt to
understand why a woman willingly returns to face the same abuse. (BC Institute Against
