This annual report begins with a review of recommendations by the Governor’s Task Force, issued in August 2015. A subsequent section details developments and innovations that have transpired since the task force concluded its work. Another provides a statistical snapshot of the prevalence of domestic violence in South Carolina and the resources available to victims. That is followed by a list of best practices for stemming domestic violence, gleaned from both task force and committee insights. A set of new recommendations from the committee will suggest how best to build upon the foundation established by Governor Haley, the General Assembly, the Governor’s Task Force, and the plethora of contributing agencies and organizations.application/pdfDocumentCopyright status determined to be in the public domain on April 27, 2020 by United States Supreme Court ruling (Georgia et al., Petitioners v.
