UJIMA: The National Center on Violence Against Women in the Black Community

This project delivers training and technical assistance (TA) to historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) that are grantees or potential grantees of the Grants to Reduce Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking on Campus (Campus Program). This project focuses on culturally specific and trauma informed strategies/approaches to address domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking (collectively, gender-based violence or GBV) on campus.

UJIMA: The National Center on Violence Against Women in the Black Community in partnership with Black Skeptics, LA; Bowie State University, Department of Criminal Justice; First Baptist Church of Glenarden International; Just Solutions; The National Organization of Sisters of Color Ending Sexual Assault; and The Person Center will implement the Improving Responses & Advocacy for Black Survivors project, which provides training and technical assistance, resource development, and support to enhance the services and responses to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking for Black/African American survivors.

This project provides training and technical assistance to courts on the intersection of racial equity and procedural fairness within the court process in civil, criminal, and family courts addressing domestic violence.

This project provides training and technical assistance to local, state, and tribal governments about implementing or improving domestic violence fatality review teams to ensure that such teams are informed by culturally specific responses.
