Technology Safety

CPEDV’s Technology Training Initiative
California Partnership to End Domestic Violence’s Technology Training Initiative, funded by the Verizon Foundation, has launched training programs across the state to address complex and ever-evolving safety issues of domestic violence victims and survivors in a digital age. The training was developed for direct service providers to learn more about how to ensure safety for survivors on the internet and on technology devices. In addition to learning about personal safety, the project provides information about how to utilize technology to hold batterers accountable, as well as how organizations can enhance their own technology protection efforts.
