Abstract

Millions of women experience intimate partner violence in their lifetime resulting in traumatic stress. Intervention programs can help but few show long-term results. A 7-year follow up of a randomized control trial of a successful intervention program was conducted. Results indicate traumatic stress symptoms remained lower for treatment versus controls.
