Domestic violence (DV) is frequently understood and responded to as an interpersonal issue, but there is significant research demonstrating the relationship between DV and a range of social issues. This brief provides a synthesis of the research connecting three interrelated social issues and DV. It also includes a short discussion of the broad social context in which patterns of DV occur and a series of recommendations for decision makers, policy developers, and organizational leaders working to prevent DV in their communities. The infographic offers a visual depiction of the research synthesis and is available in both English and Spanish. These resources are intended to serve as useful tools for communicating the importance of comprehensive, community-wide approaches to addressing DV for community leaders and service providers, including those who work with Spanish-speaking populations.
