What happens when you feel trapped or threatened in a relationship because of money? For National Domestic Abuse Awareness Month, we're talking about an often unseen form: financial and economic abuse. University of Maryland School of Social Work Dean Judy Postmus, PhD, ACSW, (4:12) will share what she's learned from survivors through her research, helping to identify what financial abuse looks like, how to help empower victims and what to do if you or someone you know needs assistance to break away from their abuser. Postmus also shares a little bit about her journey as a daughter of Dutch immigrants living in Miami to dean of the School of Social Work in Baltimore (33:00).
