Bonnie Campbell, former Director of the Office On Violence Against Women at the Justice Department:

"CAVNET has shown itself to be the premier online database concerning violence against women.... Not only does CAVNET provide timely and substantive research online, it does so in a way that saves time and resources. The busier you are, the more valuable it is. Founded and operated by Marc Dubin, my former Special Counsel, CAVNET is like having a research team of experts, available night and day... As former Director of the Office on Violence Against Women at the Justice Department, I'm proud to be on CAVNET's Board of Directors, and grateful for the resource...."
