The New Jersey Department of Human Services, Division of Disability Services and the New Jersey Coalition on Women and Disabilities have developed important resources to address violence against women with disabilities. Unheard Voices is a manual for Healthcare Providers to recognize and address possible abuse. Spot the Signs is a handy brochure for healthcare professionals. Ask the Questions is a poster that summarizes the major signs of possible abuse against women with disabilities.
This initiative was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
