ABSTRACT
This article describes a five-year follow up survey of Florida's domestic violence shelters that examined special programming for older battered women. Whereas only two or 8% of the shelters had such programming in 1990, five (22%) had specific resources for older women in 1995. The percentage of older staff members, volunteers, and board members of domestic violence shelters also increased over this period. The authors conclude with a discussion of these trends and make suggestions for future programming.
