The Purple Diaries: Unveiling The Truths & Untold Stories of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault

Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a public health crisis in the United States, and addressing IPV and its consequences is a critical component of sexual and reproductive health and rights in this country.

IPV, particularly acts of sexual violence and reproductive control, disproportionately impact women of reproductive age and can compromise womens sexual and reproductive health and autonomy.

Understanding where IPV and sexual and reproductive health intersect at the federal policy level is critical to better addressing the needs of those experiencing IPV and to better supporting safety-net providers in doing so.
