Testimony: Intrafamily Offenses and Anti-Stalking Orders Amendment Act of 2018
Children’s Law Center attorney Aubrey Edwards-Luce recently testified about the Intrafamily Offenses and Anti-Stalking Orders Amendment Act of 2018. The act proposes changes to DC law that will grant greater access to the Domestic Violence (DV) Court and benefit DV and stalking victims in a number of ways. This legislation is important to Children’s Law Center because children are often survivors of DV, and their safety and wellbeing are significantly impacted by the efficiency and effectiveness of DC’s civil protection order process.
