This guide arose from the need to acknowledge the difficulty of death and to provide staff with support and a resource. Natural causes, accidental death, suicide, and overdose are all possible causes of death or near-death in violence against women (VAW) shelters. Deaths in the community, such as women killed by their partners, have a significant impact on VAW shelters. Regardless of where the death occurs, it is extremely difficult and traumatic for the organization and its employees. While deaths and near-deaths in VAW are uncommon, the issue of overdose deaths in the community as a whole is intensifying and growing, and this has the potential to impact the VAW sector.
