Domestic violence restraining orders (DVROs), although a widely used legal intervention in preventing future risk of intimate partner violence (IPV), there is a lack of documentation on the facilitators and barriers of utilization of DVROs among IPV survivors in Los Angeles County (LAC). We conducted 19 key informant interviews with various professionals working in domestic violence prevention in LAC. Factors such as survivors' motivation, ease of navigating the legal procedures, and availability of community resources facilitate the use of DVROs. Fear, ambivalence, structural barriers to access DVROs, and issues with the criminal justice system make it harder for survivors to obtain DVROs.
家庭暴力限制令（DVRO）虽然是防止亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）未来风险的一种广泛使用的法律干预手段，但在洛杉矶县（LAC），有关 IPV 幸存者使用 DVRO 的促进因素和障碍的文献却很少。我们对在 LAC 从事家庭暴力预防工作的各种专业人员进行了 19 次关键知情人访谈。促进 DVRO 使用的因素包括幸存者的动机、法律程序的便利性和社区资源的可及性。幸存者获得 DVRO 的难度较大，原因包括恐惧、矛盾心理、获取 DVRO 的结构性障碍以及刑事司法系统的问题。
