Partner with advocates to support survivors
Partnering with Advocates
Health care and DV advocacy programs are natural partners given their shared mission to improve the health, wellness, and safety of their clients and to prevent violence before it begins.

Elements of Partnering
- Connect with your local DV agency
- Host cross-trainings with the DV agency to promote shared knowledge between your staff
- Develop a survivor referral procedure between health providers and advocates
- Outline and agree to an MOU to define your partnership
