A research team lead by Dr Emma Howarth are reviewing tools measuring intervention outcomes for children and families with children who have experienced domestic violence and abuse (DVA). This body of work builds upon research developing a DVA specific core outcome set. The team is asking DVA organisations to complete a survey to share insights about the measurement tools used in practice to capture program and intervention outcomes. Should you feel that you may be able to contribute to knowledge base of the tools that are used in practice to measure DVA outcomes, could we kindly ask you to complete the survey below. The survey should take about 10 minutes to complete and only one member of an organisation needs to take part: https://lnkd.in/eSXQV89z

Join us on Wednesday, July 10th, 4:00 - 5:00pm ET for the DV RISC Exchange Call on the Intimate Partner Violence Intervention by the National Network for Safe Communities. The Intimate Partner Violence Intervention (IPVI) focuses the attention and actions on individuals causing intimate partner violence (IPV) harm in the community while simultaneously centering victim-survivor safety. Through a multidisciplinary partnership, IPVI rewrites the narrative on how IPV can be addressed in communities while also shifting the burden off of victim-survivors to stop the abuse. From its initial launch in 2012 in High Point, NC to its replication in 2018 in Kingston, NY, there have been innovations to the strategy. IPVI continues to be tailored and streamlined to respond to the violence dynamics and resources of each city it is implemented in. Join us in this Exchange Call as Fatma Zahra and Rachel Teicher with the National Network for Safe Communities (NNSC) discuss the following: *The history of IPVI and how it's evolved from the 'High Point' model *Overview of the core fundamentals of IPVI strategy and enhancements of the work *Jurisdictions using IPVI and the impact it has had in reducing IPV in communities and creating trauma-informed and procedurally just protocols and policies You can register with the following link: https://lnkd.in/dvv8ugiu

A roadmap is now needed
📆 To mark International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG), we are publishing a new article on gender-based violence. 👉Professor David Gadd, Dr Caroline Miles, and Professor Barry Godfrey outline how the government can achieve its mission to halve VAWG within ten years. 💷 Trauma informed approaches have been found to be an effective method of prevention, but stop-start funding has limited what could have been achieved. 📚 To find out more, read our article https://lnkd.in/eTPs24b4

NEW WEBINAR! How creating safe environments prevents violence against children This seminar unpacks lessons learnt from successful interventions that build safe environments for children. Research suggests that projects to create and sustain safe environments can reduce and prevent violence against children. These include interventions in the built environment where children gather and play, and targeted actions in violence hotspots. This is one of the evidence-based strategies in INSPIRE: 7 Strategies to Prevent Violence Against Children. But how do these initiatives work, and what makes them successful? https://lnkd.in/dXfYmqun

Human trafficking is a global crisis, but its true scale remains unknown. While awareness has increased over the past 25 years, the number of individuals affected by human trafficking is still unclear, with estimates ranging from 27 to 50 million. This uncertainty fuels doubts about the severity of the issue and the need for adequate survivor support. Accurate data is essential for effective anti-trafficking efforts and ensuring the right interventions are in place. In our latest policy brief, USCRI Senior Policy Analyst Aaron Nodjomian-Escajeda discusses the distinctions between reporting, detection, and the prevalence of human trafficking cases, while highlighting the critical need to support programs that serve survivors.

There are some useful insights on trauma-informed practice for Violence Reduction Units in this Crest report. Having previously funded trauma-informed training for professionals across Sussex, we are now investing Serious Violence Duty funding to improve responses to trauma in custody and prison settings.
🔍 NEW CREST INSIGHTS REPORT Our latest research hones in on trauma-informed practice – an approach used increasingly across public services. But what is the evidence behind its use? Here's what we found... 1️⃣ Youth justice service practitioners have a clear and consistent understanding of trauma-informed practice, but clarity is needed around the overlap with other practice frameworks. 2️⃣ The application of trauma-informed practice is well-understood among youth justice practitioners but there are challenges to implementation, including a lack of consistency across partners. 3️⃣ There's a mixed picture when it comes to measuring and scaling trauma-informed practice. 4️⃣ We need to centre the voices of children and young people in our understanding of trauma-informed practice. This report contributes to the evidence base for trauma-informed practice, examining how the practice is understood and applied in youth justice services. We hope our findings can improve ways of working with young people who have been, or could be, involved in serious violence. To gather the research, the Crest Insights team carried out deep dives with two youth justice services in England, getting first-hand accounts on trauma-informed ways of working from both practitioners and children and young people. In the next phase of work, we will build on the recommendations in this report by developing tools to support services to implement, monitor and evaluate the impact of trauma-informed practice, and collate best practice across the sector. 📝 With thanks to the report authors Sophie Davis, Jessica Hull, Isabella Ross and Fernanda Reynoso-Serna.
