English to Portuguese Law/Patents Law (general) Police work

The Domestic Abuse, Stalking and Honour Based Violence (DASH 2009-2023) Risk Identification, Assessment and Management Model was implemented across all police services in the UK from March 2009. The DASH was accredited by ACPO Council, now known as National Police Chief Council (NPCC).

The DASH is a multi-agency tool used by most agencies with a focus on keeping victims and their children safe and ensuring perpetrators are proactively identified and managed. The DASH is pioneering and innovative, turning a reactive ‘it’s just a domestic’ into a proactive ‘you must ask’ questions approach. Half the questions focus on coercive control and there is a focus on stalking and so-called honour based abuse because these are the cases where women and children are more likely to be harmed and killed by abusers.
