  • Summary

  • In this episode I interview Rebecca Weininger. Rebecca Weininger is the first full time Director of the Domestic Violence Law Practice at North Suburban Legal Aid Clinic where she oversees programs and services that support access to justice for domestic violence survivors. Rebecca helps build NSLAC’s strategic partnerships and works to identify emerging issues and trends in the field to develop intersectional solutions to support survivors and improve the legal system and community response to domestic violence to provide holistic paths for survivors to independence from abuse. Prior to joining NSLAC, Rebecca spent over 20 years as a litigator in federal and state trial and appellate courts. She began her career representing undocumented survivors of domestic violence and torture and political asylum seekers from Central America. Rebecca served as a law clerk for the Honorable Robert L. Eastaugh of the Alaskan Supreme Court. Topics discussed are as follows: Trends in domestic violence: during and “after” the pandemic; The relationship between DV and gun violence; How overturning Roe v. Wade has affected DV; What DV looks like in different communities: age, ethnicity, socioeconomics; How Rebecca's team has been creative and innovative to reach DV survivors where they are to get them information and end cycles of violence.
