Introduction
This website
is designed to assist in the Northeast Region in coordinating full faith
and credit enforcement efforts to combat domestic violence
This website
addresses interstate stalking and domestic violence laws, enforcement of
foreign orders of protection, and firearms restrictions for each state in
the Northeast Region. In order to make the full faith and credit
provisions of the Violence Against Women Act an effective tool, it is essential
that law enforcement officers, attorneys, victim advocates, probation
officers, service providers, judges and other professionals who work to ensure
the safety of domestic violence victims coordinate their efforts. This
website provides a forum for coordination and communication across both
state and professional boundaries.
