About this archived opportunity

The purpose of the SD Program is to prevent sexual and domestic violence through primary and secondary prevention efforts, prioritize marginalized/underserved populations within communities, and build the capacity of local organizations. The following definitions of prevention have been adapted: • Primary prevention: Approaches that take place before sexual and/or domestic violence has occurred to prevent initial perpetration or victimization. • Secondary prevention: Immediate responses after sexual and/or domestic violence has occurred to deal with the short-term consequences of violence. • Tertiary prevention efforts are not allowable.For the purposes of the Program, evidence-informed prevention strategies and approaches from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will be applied. • Strategy: The preventative direction or actions to achieve the goal of preventing sexual and domestic violence. • Approach: The specific ways to advance the strategy. This can be accomplished through programs, policies, and practices.
