Building Financial Empowerment for Survivors of Domestic Violence
"At a time when high inflation is having a devastating impact, particularly on single-parent families, and the threat of a recession looms, this book could not be more timely. It alerts us to the need to respond not only to the emotional needs of IPV victims and their children but also to the fact that escape and healing are not possible without a sound financial footing and the economic resources necessary to survive and thrive."

"This book is a well-needed and superbly crafted volume in the field of domestic violence. It should be widely read, and its lessons put into practice by those who are involved in services and advocacy for survivors of this violence. Financial empowerment needs to be embedded into these services and this book should be on the bookshelf in every shelter and in all the libraries for academics and students alike."
