Understanding Evidence is a new, interactive web resource developed by CDC’s Division of Violence Prevention that supports public health practitioners in making evidence-informed decisions around violence prevention. The goal of evidence-based decision making is to bring a high standard of research evidence into the decision-making process while taking into account the contextual and experiential factors that influence decisions.

This web conference will provide an overview of the Understanding Evidence tool and will be focused sexual and intimate partner violence prevention. The web conference will also provide real-world scenarios illustrating how practitioners, coalitions, and evaluators can use the tool to strengthen practice and evaluation of prevention strategies.

Intimate partner violence (IPV) increases a woman's risk of HIV, and HIV can increase a woman's risk of intimate partner violence. While both issues are prominent in communities, collaboration between agencies that serve each population does not intrinsically exist. This half-day national training sponsored by the Office on Women's Health will give front-line advocates from both communities tangible tools to assist survivors of intimate partner violence with accessing information about and resources for HIV and IPV. Our goal is to strengthen community collaboration, enhance services and safety planning, and create integrated client-centered services for survivors of IPV and/or HIV.

What participants will learn:

• research demonstrating the link between ipv and hiv/aids
• basic information on vaw, ipv, hiv/aids, and hiv prevention
• current data about ipv
• current data about hiv/aids
• federal, state, and local ipv and hiv laws and guidelines
• how to identify hiv risk behaviors
• how to identify ipv
• how to integrate risk reduction plans into safety planning
• potential barriers to providing i ntegrated violence and hiv/aids services
• how to develop shared resources and referrals
• what client-centered integrated ipv/hiv services look like

Time: 12pm-6pm EST
