ENDGBV's Policy and Training Teams lead our Office's training, prevention, and policy work with the goal of enhancing City agency and community-based organization (CBO) responses to domestic and gender-based violence and identifying key areas for policy change and development.
Our Policy Team conducts policy research, develops policy recommendations, and develops policies and programs to address systemic gaps for survivors of DV/GBV. The Policy Team also supports all the Office's equity and inclusion work, housing the Language Access Coordinator, Disability Service Facilitator, and LGBTQ Liaison.
Our Training Team provides tailored trainings to City agencies and CBOs on topics across the spectrum of GBV, as well as providing technical assistance in the review and development of their policies and protocols. Organizations interested in scheduling staff training should complete the online training request form. To connect with us with questions, or about collaborating around in-person or virtual training, please contact us.
