The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that intimate partner violence (IPV) is experienced by approximately 36% of U.S. women and 33% of U.S. men during their lifetime. Studies have also suggested that people with HIV (PWH) experience higher levels of lifetime violence and trauma than the general population, and victims of IPV are at an increased risk of acquiring HIV.

This webinar will discuss challenges and opportunities in screening for IPV in vulnerable populations and provide tools and resources to support to victims of IPV.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define intimate partner violence (IPV) and related terms.
  • Describe the relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and lifetime experiences of IPV.
  • Describe the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommendations for screening for IPV in women of reproductive age.
  • Discuss the benefits of screening implementation, detection, and early intervention.
  • Identify evidence-based IPV screening tools.
