Este recurso hace conexiones entre la equidad en la salud y nuestro trabajo para prevenir la violencia sexual y de pareja íntima. Centra las historias de los sobrevivientes en las intersecciones del racismo sistémico, la violencia y la opresión.

Y, ofrece un llamado a la acción para aquellos quienes están dispuestos a comprometerse con la equidad de la salud en su trabajo de prevención de la violencia de género.

This paper makes connections between health equity and our work to prevent sexual and intimate partner violence.

And, it offers a call to action for those ready to commit to health equity in their gender-based violence prevention work.

In September 2020, the National Resource Center on Domestic Violence held its first National Prevention Town Hall. The opening session, Advancing Our Collective Liberation, centers the goals of the town hall, allowing space for panelists from each state to respond to questions posed by participants in order to offer inspiration and explore new ideas for moving our work forward.

At this moment, together we bear witness as the pandemic of racial injustice, systemic oppression, and exploitation continues to rage across the country, causing many losses. This moment in time is a call for transformation – a critical opportunity to revisit the roots of our movement to end gender-based violence in ways that can purposefully restore humanity for all. Join NRCDV for a conversation about pivoting our work to meet this moment and co-creating the world we all deserve during Domestic Violence Awareness Month and beyond.
