Health Centers Are Key to Violence Prevention

We work with health centers to support those at risk of experiencing or surviving intimate partner violence (IPV), human trafficking (HT), and exploitation, and to bolster prevention efforts.

Our Impact

Health Partners on IPV + Exploitation serves the nation’s network of 15,000 federally-funded health centers through training on building partnerships, policy development, and the integration of processes designed to promote prevention and increase the identification and referral to supportive services for individuals at risk for, experiencing, or surviving IPV, HT, and exploitation.

Health Partners works to build partnerships between health centers and domestic violence and sexual assault (DV/SA) advocacy programs–they are natural partners given their shared mission to improve the health, wellness, and safety of their patients and clients.

CUES Intervention

“CUES” is an evidence-based intervention to address domestic and sexual violence in health settings shown to improve health and safety outcomes for survivors. The CUES infographic is available in English and Spanish as PDFs and may be printed and placed in exam room cubbies, or staff lounges, as well as helpful for staff training and education.
