Questions for Discussion: OWH seeks

reported rise of IPV. Questions for
discussion at the public session may
include, but are not limited to:

pandemic’s impact on IPV trends?

you identified to address IPV?
• How and when can we best engage
organizations around IPV in the future?
• What are your organization’s
suggestions on including perspectives of
underserved communities?
• What has worked well in your
collaboration with government agencies
and offices around IPV? Conversely,
what is one key barrier you
encountered?

communities you represent, work most
closely with, and/or advocate on behalf
of?
• What is your top priority related to
the impact of COVID–19 on IPV?

the Journal of Interpersonal Violence
revealed 64 percent of individuals who
experienced IPV since the start of the
COVID–19 pandemic reported that
violence was a new characteristic of
their relationship (Peitzmeier 2021).
We invite organizations who work
with victims of IPV; Federal, State,
local, and tribal public health officials;

into the current state of IPV and the
impact of the COVID–19 pandemic on
IPV. Members of the general public are
