Creating Healthy Places: Strategies for California's Local Health Agencies
Co-sponsored with the Program on Health, Equity and Sustainability, San Francisco Department of Public Health
The national context for teen dating violence (TDV) prevention policy has changed in recent years. Catapulted by advocacy efforts and growing public awareness, a greater number of anti-domestic violence organizations, health care providers, policy-makers, funders and others are engaged in a range of actions to prevent TDV, from community engagement and education to public policy and institutional practice change. We stand at a unique moment of opportunity to get updated and educated about what we can do to prevent TDV through policy change at the state and local levels in California. Please join the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence (CPEDV) for a panel presentation on advancing TDV prevention in California through state and local policy change. The objectives of the panel are to:

A Joint Web Conference between UNITY & the National League of Cities' Institute for Youth, Education, and Families Measuring Success: Effective Data and Evaluation Strategies for Cities Cities dedicate a significant portion of their budgets to keeping their residents safe. Many cities, however, do not know if they are getting their money's worth, and may underutilize the data they are already collecting. In many cases, developing a strategic community-wide evaluation plan that engages all stakeholders can help cities better understand the effects their programs are having and better plan for their future violence prevention efforts. The goal of this web conference is to provide city leaders and other advocates with an introduction to developing a strategic community-wide evaluation plan for their violence prevention strategies and to provide a case example from the City of Louisville. Billie Weiss, MPH, co-chair of UNITY, and Michele Wood, PhD, both with the Southern California Injury Prevention Research Center's Evaluation Team will guide participants through the process of developing an evaluation plan for their city's violence prevention strategy. Strategy evaluation focuses on how well the different sectors are working separately and together with others, and whether or not intended objectives are being met. Indicators to measure progress most often include changes in risk and protective factors, community involvement and youth engagement and, most importantly, decreases in violent crimes and death. The webinar's scope will include:
