In this article, Wilson Hernandez, from the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru, analyzes how "violence with femicide risk" (VFR) affects the physical and mental wellbeing of women and their children in Peru. Notably, Hernandez attempts to fill methodological gaps in prior literature and identifies several direct effects of VFR on both women and children, such as an increased likelihood of substance abuse issues among women and fevers among children. Hernandez also discusses safety planning strategies to help protect women and children from VFR. This article is only accessible with journal subscription.
