City Responses to Domestic Violence: A 77-City Survey

The United States Conference of Mayors published the findings of a survey documenting 77 cities within 31 States and their current strategies of domestic violence prevention and response. The survey’s report explains the size and scope of domestic violence and examines findings using data collected from survey responses and previous research. The report describes specific prevention and response strategies submitted by cities and States: public-private partnerships, best practices, and coordinated community response. This report represents a significant initiative towards improving domestic violence prevention and response. As the report shows, responding efficiently to domestic violence requires a significant amount of time and effort. In order to provide the best services possible, it is essential to collaborate and share strategies.
