ONE HUGE VICTORY FOR SURVIVORS---The Texas Medical Association has decided they will offer CME training on Sexual and Domestic Violence Screening. This is medical first for Texas and it has been a long time coming but we are very grateful for the support of all our partners in the fight to bring help, hope, healing and justice to survivors and secondary victims. According to Gayle Love, Media Relations for the Association, they are also recommending to the Editorial Board of the TexMed Journal that they do an article on the importance and benefits of screening. We can look for these new developments to take place the first of next year. Lift submitted numerous examples of universal and global screening assessment tools which we asked the Association to utilize as a guide in the development of assessments used by Health Care Professionals in Texas. In response to the need they will be developing an independent screening tool. According to Mrs. Love, the Texas Medical Association understands the need for the assessments and their actions are in response to that need. This is a big victory! Please call the Texas Medical Association and let them know how much you appreciate their heart and the work of their hands.
