Washington Coalition of Sexual Assault Programs Addresses Intimate Partner Sexual Assault
In Washington State, the Office of Crime Victims Advocacy (OCVA), recognizes and responds to the needs of crime victims. In 2005, OCVA began coordinating a multi-agency initiative funded by Grants to Encourage Arrest Policies and Enforcement of Protection Orders program, focusing on sexual assault and stalking within the context of domestic violence. BWJP is featuring this initiative as a promising practice in several parts, since it has so many components. This is Part Three in the series.
The Washington Coalition of Sexual Assault Programs (WCSAP) developed an array of resources on Intimate Partner Sexual Violence (IPSV). Because many IPSV survivors feel out of place in either domestic violence or sexual assault support groups, WCSAP) created an IPSV Support Group Guide with a full curriculum for a psychoeducational support group. A Train-The-Trainer Kit is available at the WCSAP website, along with a mini-poster and bookmark that an agency may download for printing. Brochures on IPSV and stalking logs are excellent client resources. A publication on IPSV with articles from leading advocates, attorneys, and law enforcement sources gives a broad overview of the topic. For more information, contact Jennifer Y. Levy-Peck at jennifer@wcsap.org
