Description:
This poster demonstrates the application of Community Based Participatory Research (CBPR) principles to conduct a mixed method study exploring the health needs of survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV) and barriers to seeking support and services. IPV survivors, advocates, researchers, providers and community members have differing yet interdependent perspectives which highlight the complex health consequences of IPV. The study team comprised of multidisciplinary members developed, using CBPR processes, an IPV informed, effective and sustainable intervention program.
