Welcome to the Intimate Partner Violence Risk Study - LEO Version

Thank you for taking the time to participate in this important research study conducted by Operation Safe Escape. Your responses will play a critical role in helping us better understand the factors that contribute to increased risk of violence and homicide in intimate partner relationships.

As a law enforcement officer, you are often the first point of contact a survivor has with a support system and resources that can help protect them.

This study aims to identify patterns and predictors of violence or homicide to allow us to better protect and guide the survivors we work with. Additionally, the research will help advocates, shelters, and safe houses more effectively intervene, support survivors, and prevent harm before it escalates. Your participation will help shape the future of survivor-centered safety planning and advocacy.

Your responses are completely anonymous and confidential. We understand that discussing these topics can be difficult, and we encourage you to take breaks as needed. If at any point you feel distressed, please consider reaching out to a trusted support network or a crisis resource.

By continuing with this survey, you are contributing to vital research that will help protect lives and strengthen support systems for survivors of intimate partner violence.

Thank you for your time and for helping us make a difference.
