Domestic Violence
Is it possible that there are links between personality types and the risk for domestic
violence? This course will explore current statistics in domestic violence incidences, at-
risk groups, the effects of COVID on domestic unrest, and the personality types that
may impose risk factors for abuse and/or links to human trafficking. Mrs. Hammaker will
also discuss reporting obligations of dental health providers, recognition of abuse and
will provide helpful links and resources that are available for victims of abuse.
