Domestic violence

Abstract:

A couple who lost their daughter to domestic violence were inspired to help prevent others from experiencing their tragedy. Their goal was intentionally realized as the Jamie Kimble Scholarship, awarded to UNC-Chapel Hill PhD level students studying violence against women. Unexpected initiatives include the creation of high school domestic violence awareness clubs and a partnership with local companies to help employees experiencing domestic violence.
