We partner with survivors, communities, and professionals to advance prevention, advocacy, and collective action, aspiring to create a safer, more just Virginia where healthy relationships and thriving communities are possible.

What We Do

Supporting communities in transforming the root causes of violence through education, primary prevention strategies, youth engagement, and statewide campaigns that center equity and healing.

Advancing survivor-centered policies at the local, state, and federal levels. We monitor emerging issues, collaborate with partners, and advocate for laws and funding that strengthen safety, justice, and opportunities for all Virginians.

Offering skill-building trainings, technical assistance, and professional development for advocates, preventionists, healthcare providers, educators, and community leaders working to end violence.

Providing the Commonwealth’s most comprehensive data on sexual and domestic violence services. VAdata helps programs, policymakers, and communities understand emerging trends, improve services, and support informed decision-making.
