Abstract: 

This is the second in a three-part series of summaries from a special issue of Evaluation Review: A Journal of Applied Social Research. The special issue, published in 2006, focused on intimate partner violence and firearms and was edited by Professor Susan B. Sorenson. The authors recommend that all states enact laws requiring law enforcement to remove guns at domestic violence incidents, and mandating inclusion of gun removal orders in all domestic violence protective orders.

Keywords: “Gun Possession Among Massachusetts Batterer Intervention Program Enrolees”, by Emily F. Rothman, Renee M. Johnson, and David Hemenway
