Description:
The goal of this report is to provide participants with an overview of the findings from the 2010 National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS). NISVS was designed to provide national and state-level data on intimate partner violence, sexual violence and stalking. Detailed information gathered in NISVS will increase our understanding of the nature, context, severity, and consequences of these forms of violence. Data on a range of measured impacts will be presented, including physical and mental health consequences.
