About the Domestic violence and child abuse category

Discuss laws and programs addressing domestic violence, child abuse, and family protection.

What’s this subcategory for?
A place to examine congressional action on protecting families from abuse and supporting survivors.

How is it different?
It focuses on abuse prevention and family safety, not broader family law or marriage issues.

What should posts include?
Legislation on protective orders, child welfare programs, prevention funding, and survivor services.

Why not merge?
Family safety requires specific attention separate from general family policy.

Engagement policy:
We welcome all viewpoints, as long as they are respectful. Keep the focus on policy and legislation, especially Congress. Avoid partisan debates about the presidency.
