Improving the Response to Domestic Violence Victims and Their Children: A Prosecutor/Victim Advocate Action Partnership

Through this FY 07 Action Partnerships Cooperative Agreement, the National District Attorneys Association (NDAA) will design and offer a pilot-test track of six to eight workshops on assisting domestic violence victims and their children at NDAA's national domestic violence conference, providing a multi-disciplinary curriculum for their audience of prosecutors, victim advocates, and allied professionals. In addition to presenting the training track at their existing domestic violence conference, NDAA intends that these workshops will be tailored for continuing use, beyond the cooperative agreement, in each state by the Domestic Violence Training Specialists that will be assigned to each state as a result of an OVW funded program through the National Association of Prosecutor Coordinators.
