The Committee was established to serve as a statewide resource for addressing domestic violence-related fatalities and near-fatalities, establish regional domestic violence fatality review teams, and issue annual recommendations for systems change. The Statewide Fatality Review Committee began meeting in January 2022 and continues to meet every other month to carry out its mission. All meetings are open to the public.
