Providing victims with means to protect themselves, such as weapons, is unlikely to help prevent intimate partner abuse. In fact, it may increase the likelihood of further violence and harm to the victim. This approach does not address the root causes of intimate partner abuse, but rather encourages victims to engage in violent behavior in self-defense. Vigorous law enforcement, teaching hospital emergency room personnel to recognize the signs of abuse, and providing victims with problem-solving skills and temporary shelters are all recognized approaches that have been shown to help prevent intimate partner abuse.
