This Compendium is a roadmap to hundreds of federally supported research projects on the subject of violence against women. The Compendium also stands as testament to the depth and breadth of the National Institute of Justice’s (NIJ) decades-long commitment to protecting women in America from violence of all forms.
As a lead federal agency advancing research and practice on violence against women issues, NIJ has arranged, funded, and distributed the benefits of a rich array of research projects designed to:
Identify and understand the full dimensions of violence against women.
Articulate policy and practice solutions that can assist state and local justice and victim support agencies addressing violence against women.
Support training of agency professionals on how to help women who are violence survivors, who may be at risk of violence, or both.
Connect federal, state, and local agencies, to share knowledge and best practices and to collect data needed for an accurate and complete picture of a critical problem in our national culture. (From the website). Record #7281
