This session will share the input from researchers, medical practitioners, federal colleagues and other stakeholders who provide insight on challenges and barriers to screening and intervention for IPV and will discuss the next steps to address these gaps in research. Instruments and strategies for IPV screening and assessment; Culturally-competent screening and counseling practices; and The effects of screening and counseling on health, safety, and outcomes related to social and emotional well-being.
