This page describes the history, purpose, concepts, and activities related to the CDC's DELTA Program, funding state domestic violence coalitions to build IPV prevention capacity within their organization, state, and local communities.

"This paper briefly examines the available research and practice literature on frameworks for understanding domestic violence, risk and protective factors for adult domestic violence, and the few efforts geared toward primary prevention in this domain. It mentions secondary and tertiary prevention efforts in this field but does not review them. It ends by pointing to program and policy directions for future primary prevention efforts."

This brief document describes the difference between outcome and process evaluation, distinctions between goals, objectives, and outcomes, and how to select outcomes that make sense for domestic violence programs.

The content of this series of Outcome Evaluation Issues Briefs is drawn from a 2007 NRCDV publication entitled "Outcome Evaluation Strategies for Domestic Violence Services Programs Receiving FVPSA Funding: A Practical Guide," authored by Eleanor Lyon, PhD and Cris Sullivan, PhD.

This Blueprint is a framework to identify the range of roles and partnerships in which stakeholders can engage and activities that will prevent violence in all its forms, including child and elder abuse, intimate partner violence, date rape and sexual assault, suicide, youth and community violence, and hate violence.

This document serves to build momentum for a national primary prevention strategy to prevent intimate partner violence.
