Additional Initiatives
Fatality Review Teams
The primary purpose of a Fatality Review Team is to review deaths and near fatalities in which intimate partner domestic violence had played a role. The ultimate goal of these teams is to prevent future domestic violence related fatalities.
Partners on each team include members from local Law Enforcement, State's Attorney's Offices and Domestic Violence service providers for each specific County. Other concerned parties can be involved with meetings on a case by case basis. Because of the sensitive nature of the topics discussed, all cases discussed are strictly confidential, and all topics discussed cannot be disclosed to anyone outside of the committee. The purpose of the Fatality review team is to review cases to determine if and what could have been done differently to prevent a homicide or near homicide.
