HRSA is implementing The HRSA Strategy to Address Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) 2017-2020, an agency-wide initiative to integrate IPV screening and prevention into key programs through coordinated action and activities. Our infographic shows some of HRSA’s accomplishments to date.

The IPV Health Partners Toolkit, one of the resources included in the Strategy, guides health centers and other health care settings on approaches to transform practices to better serve domestic violence survivors.

Project Catalyst: Statewide Transformation on Health and IPV promotes systems changes and state-level policies that support an integrated and improved response to IPV and human trafficking in community health centers and domestic violence programs.
