The national resource center on workplace responses to assist victims of domestic and sexual violence (resource center)

The National Resource Center on Workplace Responses to Assist Victims of Domestic and Sexual Violence (Resource Center) received a $1 million cooperative agreement award from the Department of Justice Offices Boards and Divisions Office on Violence Against Women. The award period runs from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022 to support the Resource Center on Workplace Response to Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking program (CFDA #16.028).

Through this cooperative agreement, Futures Without Violence will operate the Resource Center to provide resources and technical assistance to help workplaces develop effective responses to assist employees who are victims of domestic or sexual violence. The Resource Center aims to educate employers and help create workplace policies and partnerships with local support services tailored to victims' needs. This will help victims maintain employment and economic stability while seeking assistance for abusive situations.
