Phone Check-Ins may boost recovery for female violence victims
NCT ID NCT04953273
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a phone-based check-in system can improve mental health outcomes for women who have experienced violence. Researchers will call some participants a few weeks after their forensic exam and offer support, while others receive standard care. The goal is to see if early contact reduces PTSD and other symptoms over the following year.
