Description: Intimate partner violence (IPV), racism and maternal mortality among mothers remains one of the least explored and under-resourced topics, yet is central to ensuring expectant mothers do not continue to die from preventable causes. This webinar will feature individual and organizational level strategies that health centers can implement to improve health outcome for mothers who have experienced IPV. We will hear from an OB/GYN working to improve the clinical response to IPV, as well as from a survivor about their experience with the healthcare system during pregnancy and birth. The evidence-based CUES intervention, an adaptable health center protocol, and tools for building partnerships and strengthening connections between health centers and domestic violence advocates and other community-based programs will be shared. It is crucial that we learn about innovative clinical practices, birth worker activism, consumer and survivor experiences, and health models that show promise in promoting health and justice for mothers.
Learning Objectives: As a result of this webinar participants will be able to:
1. Explain the connection between IPV and maternal health and health equity
2. Identify three survivor-centered IPV prevention and intervention practices and strategies
3. Define the IPV evidence-based intervention and CUES
4. Integrate tools that can be used to build partnership and collaboration between health centers and DV organizations
