On Tuesday, Governor Kathy Hochul signed a legislation package that will strengthen protections for survivors of domestic violence. The laws include requirements for disclosing the possession and location of firearms; ensure the confidentiality of survivors' voter registration information; and give survivors the option of providing alternative contact information to access their health insurance benefits.
We talk with representatives from Willow Domestic Violence Center about what the new legislation means for survivors. Our guests:
- Tiffany Welch-Quinn, COO of Willow Domestic Violence Center
- Nicole Morelle, vice president of community engagement at Willow Domestic Violence Center
- Jerri Lynn Sparks, domestic violence survivor
