Letter from Jacquelyn Campbell to Daniel Sheridan, July 9, 1981
Jacquelyn Campbell first became acquainted with Daniel Sheridan when she responded to his letter in the American Journal of Nursing asking for information about providing nursing care in shelters for women who were battered. Campbell's letter was generous, detailed, and anecdotal. She wrote about the types of medical and emotional issues typically encountered by women and children in shelters; practical advice about coordinating with other agencies and budgeting issues; and a recommendation to ally with nursing programs at universities.
