As we enter our third year of running Health Partners on IPV + Exploitation, an NTTAP funded by HRSA’s Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC), that works with health centers on the topics of IPV/Human Trafficking and Exploitation, we are proud to share some of the successes of our second year.
In the last year –
We Hosted:

7 Webinars on a range of topics
A podcast episode, Ryan White Funding Opportunities for Community Health Centers
A Learning Lab at the National Health Care for the Homeless Conference & Policy Symposium. Check out the slides from the conference here.
6 Articles and a blogpost with School-Based Health Alliance
We Collaborated With Organizational Partners:
