Praxis International in Duluth, Minnesota The incidence of intimate partner abuse among couples in the military, as throughout all social life, has been well documented. In the early 1990s, there were a number of dramatic domestic-violence-related cases, including homicides of military wives. In response, the U.S. Marines partnered with an advocacy-based domestic violence organization to implement a coordinated community response to domestic violence throughout the U.S. Marine Corps. This article presents a case study describing the processes, activities, policies, accomplishments, and challenges of the project from 1992 to 1998.
