traumatic brain injury which is either preexisting or as a
result of abuse, and how a brain injury affects a
victim. Ms. DeWard sites research, and speaks about
the work of the New York State Coalition Against Domestic
Violence to assist women's shelters to identify and advocate
for TBI survivors who are victims of domestic violence.
