abstract="This paper presents an approach to strategic performance monitoring for domestic violence. The purpose of strategic performance management is to build in a mechanism to monitor and to improve police responses in order to diminish the overall harm of domestic violence, and ultimately to reduce domestic violence homicide. Three analytic elements--understanding the lessons from domestic homicide, the needs of repeat users of police services and the profile of requests for service for domestic violence--lay a foundation for thinking about victims' needs and policing. Laid alongside the information held by other agencies and non-government agencies, strategy and performance can be assessed in the context of victim safety and continuous improvement in filling the gaps in service delivery.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
