What the grant funds

The Resource Centers support efforts to prevent and respond to family, domestic, and dating violence by providing information, training, and technical assistance to individuals, organizations, government agencies, and communities. The National Resource Centers on Domestic Violence focus on strengthening services and knowledge in the field. One center provides training and technical assistance on domestic violence programs, research, and services for victims and their children. Another maintains a national resource library to collect, analyze, and share information on domestic violence, prevention strategies, and services for adult and youth victims. The National Indian Resource Center works with tribes and tribal organizations to improve responses to domestic violence and increase safety for Indian women. It also coordinates with federal partners that serve Native communities. Special Issue Resource Centers address key systems that impact victims of domestic violence. These centers provide training and technical assistance on responses within the justice system, child protective services, health care, and mental health systems. Additional centers focus on improving services and prevention efforts for racial and ethnic minority communities. Native-focused resource centers, including those serving Native Hawaiian and Alaska Native communities, build capacity among tribes, organizations, and service providers. They coordinate with the National Indian Resource Center and deliver culturally relevant prevention and education efforts. The National Resource Center to Expand Services for Children, Youth, and Abused Parents strengthens support for non-abusing parents and their children, including efforts to prevent or reduce foster care involvement. Sexual Assault Technical Assistance Centers support grantees in improving sexual assault prevention and response through specialized expertise and training.
