A protection order is one tool a survivor can use to enhance their safety. However, the differences between jurisdictions can lead to challenges and barriers to protection order enforcement for a survivor. It is critical that all disciplines work together to ensure seamless issuance, service, and enforcement of orders within and between jurisdictions.
Most of these resources are provided by our National Center on Protection Orders and Full Faith & Credit, which provides technical assistance and support to professionals who issue, serve, and enforce protection orders. Contact or learn more about the National Center here.
