Important Information for all Abstract Submissions:

Abstracts that fail to adhere to the submission guidelines or relate to the conference goals will not be accepted for review.

Abstracts will be reviewed and scored based on:

1. Relevance to the goal of conference (see Conference Goal for full description)
2. Organization and clarity
3. Description of objectives, content and teaching methodologies to the educational needs of participants
4. Special consideration will be given to abstracts that address diverse or marginalized populations using an intersectional analysis that addresses unique experience.
5. Additional review criteria by session type include:
• Scientific Reports: Content that is scientifically-based, accurate, current, and objective.
• Innovative Programs/Promising Practice Reports: Content about innovative programs/promising practice issues, concepts, strategies or programs that present effective ways to improve the health care response to DV.
• Workshops: Ability to enhance or strengthen specific practice, research, or policy skills of participants. Workshops should utilize adult learning theory, incorporate up to date educational techniques (e.g. problem-based or team-based learning), and be interactive and participatory.
• Symposium: Session provides an in-depth exploration of a key issue, area or concept related to health and domestic violence.

Submission Deadline and Important Details for Applicants:

The deadline to submit all proposals is Wednesday, July 6, 2011 at 5:00 pm Pacific Daylight Time (PDT)/6:00 pm Mountain Time/7:00 pm Central Time/8:00 pm Eastern Time.

Abstracts presented elsewhere may be submitted for consideration at this meeting, provided that full disclosure is made in the abstract submission materials. (Presenters are responsible for adhering to the submission exclusivity/primacy guidelines of outside entities.)

Accepted Scientific Reports and Innovative Programs/Promising Practice Reports will be grouped according to topic or theme by the Conference staff. Typically, three to four abstracts will be grouped for presentation in a single 80-minute session. Each session will be assigned a moderator to ensure time limits are followed.

Upon receipt of acceptance, you will be asked to confirm your participation by following the instructions on your acceptance letter from Futures Without Violence (formerly Family Violence Prevention Fund).

For each abstract that is selected, one presenter will be eligible for discounted registration to the Conference. (Note: additional fees apply for the pre-conference institutes.) A very small number of additional stipends to partially defray travel or hotel expenses will be available to presenters (based on financial need). A separate scholarship application will be available on the conference website when registration opens.

Although online submission is preferred, those with limited internet access may submit proposals in hard copy format. Please contact Vedalyn DeGuzman for hard copy submission instructions:
