OVW's TA Initiative is designed to strengthen and build the capacity of civil and criminal justice system professionals and victim service providers across the nation to respond effectively to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking (i.e., the four VAWA crimes) and foster partnerships and collaboration among organizations to address these crimes.
