This week we discuss domestic and family violence during COVID-19. Experts warn that movement restrictions can mean more frequent and severe incidents of domestic violence and child abuse. The isolation disrupted routines, and economic struggles are all conditions that advocates say can lead to more violence in the home.

Episode 3 features Darin Balaam, Washoe County Sheriff, and Rachelle Pellissier MPA, Executive Director of CSSNV, and is moderated by Connie Wray.
