Community involvement is crucial for reducing incidents of domestic violence. In large urban settings as well as in rural villages, strategies for combatting domestic violence require the active and continued support of individuals within the community. Using an interactive approach with participants, this workshop outlines strategies for: 1) identifying the type of domestic intervention needed for a specific community; 2) gaining the support and assistance of influential community residents in establishing domestic violence intervention programs; and, 3) determining how to sustain community run, domestic violence intervention programs.
