What We Do
Tools and ongoing support to strengthen your work
The Partnership is committed to strengthening the capacity of advocates, service providers, and allied groups to effectively support survivors of domestic violence. Through comprehensive training and tailored technical assistance, we equip organizations with the knowledge, tools, and strategies needed to deliver trauma-informed, survivor-centered services.
Our Training content covers a wide range of critical topics, including safety planning, advocacy strategies, shelter and transitional housing access, confidentiality, economic empowerment, and peer learning support. Training is delivered via webinars, workshops, on-demand resources, and through collaborative learning spaces to help us meet the evolving needs of the field. Our training provides individualized support to programs, helping them to be able to navigate complex challenges, implement best-practice, and enhance their organizational capacity.
Our Sample 40-Hour Training Curriculum helps organizations meet California’s domestic violence advocate training requirements under Evidence Code §1037.1. It covers essential topics, learning objectives, and best practices to support a survivor-centered approach to advocacy. Many domestic violence organizations have used it as a comprehensive guide while adapting the curriculum to fit their communities’ unique needs. We invite you to explore the full curriculum—including a Distance Learning platform to give participants virtual access—to strengthen your training efforts! Questions?

Our Building Change Together: Prevention Core Competencies Training equips preventionists with the skills and knowledge to prevent domestic violence through the lens of the social-ecological model and systemic change. This training covers key competencies to strengthen prevention efforts at individual, community, and societal levels. While our Training takes place once a year in the Spring, our Prevention Core Competencies curriculum is available year-round. We welcome you to use it as a guide for building sustainable, community-driven solutions.

The Paid Family Leave Toolkit, developed by the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence and the California Work & Family Coalition, highlights the connection between paid family leave and domestic violence prevention. This resource provides key messaging, policy insights, and advocacy tools to promote economic security and workplace protections for survivors and families. By expanding access to paid leave, we can help reduce risk factors for violence.
The Funding Resource Table includes federal and California state grant opportunities for organizations that provide shelter and/or housing related services to survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking organizations as well as domestic violence and sexual assault Culturally Specific Organizations.
