Family Violence Prevention Fund
Definition(s)
- THE FAMILY VIOLENCE Prevention Fund (FVPF) began its work in 1980 with a focus on domestic violence education, prevention, and policy reform. The FVPF also helps women and children whose lives are thrown into poverty and wrecked by abuse, because it holds that “every person has a right to live in a home free of violence.” The FVPF works with policymakers to challenge them to take domestic violence seriously, judges to protect the victims of abuse, and the police to train and educate on how to respond in appropriate ways when confronted with domestic violence cases.
