By changing the way we talk about domestic violence, we deepen
the understanding of its root causes and how it can be prevented.
The Partnership is expanding the broader conversation to include
narratives that show that ending domestic violence is
possible.
We work with journalists to tell accurate and nuanced stories
that elevate solutions to domestic violence. When more people
know there are solutions, we can start to envision and create a
California free from violence.
Our Communications team is available to assist
journalists with:
- Interviews with our staff that are related to our key issue areas
- Arranging sources who are subject matter experts or who can
provide perspectives on domestic violence related issues that are
local to your audience and community
- Connecting you with survivors whose stories and solutions can
enhance and elevate your pieces
- Working with survivors in a
trauma-informed manner to preserve their safety and
agency
- Providing data about how many Californians experience
domestic violence (according to the U.S. Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, an estimated 3.3 million Californians
experience domestic violence every year).
