Rose Brooks Center

Bringing together program and service providers, the Jackson County Domestic Violence Fatality Review (JCDVFR) team is a collective which has been years in the making.
For the families we serve, this time of year is full of outdoor fun and back-to-school events, alongside the work we do every day to keep survivors and our communities safe.
Kansas City, Missouri, May 16, 2023 — The Jackson County Domestic Violence Fatality Review (JCDVFR) team has been working towards this review process for many years and hopes it will create a systems and societal change needed to end DV related deaths.
As you look at the Impact Report, you will see a representation of the collective work provided to survivors and those affected by violence. One of the most profound results from last year is the number of individuals we spoke to on our 24/7 crisis hotline, totaling 11,707 calls.
