	State of New York Domestic Violence Policy
		Domestic violence occurs within a wide spectrum of relationships, including married and formerly married couples, couples with children in common, and couples who live together or have lived together.
		Domestic violence is defined as a pattern of coercive tactics which can include physical, psychological, sexual, economic and emotional abuse perpetrated by one person against a family or household member, with the goal of establishing and maintaining power and control over the victim.
		When agency policies require an employee to submit documentation to justify absences, agencies should be aware that victims of domestic violence may initially lack documentation or may have difficulty obtaining documentation without compromising their safety.

	The CPS : Domestic Violence
		Today, far from being considered a mitigating factor, violence in the domestic context is seen by society as an aggravating factor because it amounts to a fundamental breach of trust - everyone is entitled to feel safe in his or her personal relationships.
		CPS regards domestic violence as particularly serious as it often involves a continuing threat to a victim's safety and, in the worst cases, the victim's life and the lives of others (including children) may be at risk.
		“Domestic violence” is a general term to describe a range of behaviour often used by one person to control and dominate another with whom they have, or have had, a close or family relationship and in which the abuser operates from a position of perceived power.

	Get Busy. Get Equal.: Domestic Partnership
		Domestic partnership was conceived to help bridge this disparity and create greater equality for same-sex couples.
		Most city and county domestic partnership registries are simply registration systems that confer no benefits or responsibilities on either partner but provide couples with a way to officially register their relationship with the municipality.
		Since the goal of most employer domestic partnership policies is to create greater equality in the workplace, most provide at least some benefits, such as bereavement leave and emergency medical leave.

	Rural Health Policy - Publications - Domestic Violence
		As domestic violence has edged its way into the health care arena and onto the national health agenda, it is perhaps not surprising that little attention has been paid to the unique rural challenges and potential solutions to this perplexing and pervasive social concern.
		Rural health care providers and policy makers are increasingly accountable for their actions in the area of domestic violence, yet little effort has been made to provide them with the appropriate tools to improve their practice and programs.
		Domestic violence agencies, rural health specialists and others were queried to identify these key issues; see listing of agencies and individuals consulted at the end of this report.

	Domestic Policy
		It has been accompanied by rising rates of domestic violence and a relative decline of male earnings that has made men more dispensable in the minds of poor women seeking to escape abusive relationships—something with unintentionally positive consequences from a feminist perspective.
		It is curious also to note that welfare reform has long been justified by the widely propagated and dear-to-Republicans’ belief that the expansion of liberal welfare policies and rising benefit levels during and after the 1960s provided the chief cause of the rise of female-headed families and the out-of-wedlock births.
		Countering those forces would require a level of public and social investment that is anathema to conventional neo-liberal policy wisdom and particularly ruled out by Bush’s commitment to slashing taxes for and funneling billions of dollars to his super-opulent friends and corporate paymasters.

	Domestic Policy No Match for Trade Stance of Central American Countries - Southwest Economy, March/April 2005 - FRB ...
		The relation between the trade index and the four selected domestic market openness measures is similar, except that the line for the four variables starts at a lower (more market-oriented policy) value than that for the eight variables.
		A striking detail is the tie between GDP per capita and this trade–market policy connection and what it suggests about the relation between economic development and openness.
		Moreover, while all four of the poorer countries have less domestic market openness than trade openness, the two richest of those four (El Salvador and Guatemala) have domestic openness levels closer to their trade openness ratings than the two poorest (Honduras and Nicaragua).

		As a federal budget battle looms and reports continue to document the rising costs of living and health care in the face of proposed budget cuts to social programs, it is an ideal time for each of us to be reminded why such programs were begun in the first place.
		I urge the President to develop an effective US trade policy - one that addresses the unfair practices our trading partners are using to restrict our exports and to flood our market with their goods.
		Rather, Bush's newly proposed budget seeks to slash necessary domestic spending that will leave American citizens in need and/or pass the buck to state governments that are just beginning to recover from their own fiscal troubles.

		For the last 13 years, Miringoff and his fellow researchers at Fordham’s Institute for Innovation in Social Policy have been tracking what they call the social health of the United States.
		It is disappointing that Miringoff can’t muster any data from the last two to three years—a gap that limits his study’s political and policy impact.
		Still, Miringoff and the Fordham Institute deserve major credit for making a serious effort to produce and publicize what is in essence (declarations of ideological nonpartisanship notwithstanding) a left alternative to the hegemonic Index of Leading Economic Indicators and to Bennett’s reactionary cultural measures.
