In order to end intimate partner violence, CNVC’s Community Services team focuses efforts on preventing violence before it occurs. This is called Primary Prevention. Intimate partner violence prevention includes proactive efforts to stop violence and abuse from happening in the first place by interrupting the cultural rules, norms, and constructs that support it.

CNVC uses evidence-based curriculum with a Trauma-Informed approach. All of our workshops, summits, support groups, etc. are created to provide support services in a way that is accessible and appropriate to those who may have experienced trauma.
