The Disability and Abuse Project is launching a "Rule Out Abuse" campaign for medical doctors. The campaign has been endorsed by Vincent J. Felitti, M.D., the co-principal investigator of the ACE Study -- a study conducted by Kaiser Permanente into the later-in-life consequences of adverse childhood events.
Dr. Nora Baladerian is
spearheading the campaign after years of noticing that, when presented
with patients with disabilities who have traditional symptoms associated
with abuse, doctors generally do not consider such a diagnosis as a
possibility to rule out. To learn more about the
rationale
behind this campaign, click here. For Part 1 of the literature (an overview),
