Prevent IPV News

Webinar Announcement

Join the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence for a webinar with Berkeley Media Studies Group to learn more about developing an overall strategy, identifying key audiences and messengers, and developing impactful prevention messages that can help your organization describe how you’re preventing violence, and how audiences can support your work.

For many of us, the collective trauma of COVID-19 and racial injustice, including the white supremacist, anti-Black murders in Buffalo on May 14th, has greatly impacted our mental health and wellness. Our collective grief, pain, and anger can feel at times like too much to bear. But we know that just as all forms of violence are interconnected, so too must be our response to it.

This issue of the PreventIPV newsletter highlights the role of community connection in promoting mental well-being. Resources feature strategies for trauma-informed community building, community care, and healing justice.
