Earlier this month, San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria hosted a “Women of Distinction” event to recognize exceptional women in San Diego and their contributions to the community.

Among the honorees was Cori Austin, CEO of Center for Community Solutions, a nonprofit dedicated to helping survivors of intimate partner violence, or IPV.

On Midday Edition Wednesday, we sit down with Austin to talk about how awareness around IPV has changed and what is being done to support survivors today.
