Executive Summary closely with researchers, survivors and practitioners to address this issue area. Communities, Systems and Infrastructure Communities and systems must change infrastructure and practices to shift to a society that does not tolerate sexual assault, domestic violence, or stalking. The strategic plan emphasizes community-driven initiatives including collaborations with leaders, advocates, and nontraditional allies, facilitating social change organizing that leads to local sustainable action, supporting the development of innovative educational models and training based on the input of stakeholders and solid data. In addition, strategies involve the assessment, design and access to model administrative policies for sexual assault, domestic violence and stalking prevention across sectors. Public health related entities together with advocacy networks, community leaders, government systems and other state and local actors will need to facilitate implementation of these strategies. Public Awareness Multiple public awareness strategies designed with diverse input and applied in many different settings using various means of communication will help Texans understand sexual assault, domestic violence and stalking as public health crises. The strategic plan recommends involving men in message design and implementation, using community-informed public awareness campaigns, carefully educating and screening clients in health care settings and promoting effective anti-bullying efforts. All efforts should be carefully evaluated and adapted based on research. Again, many state and community leaders will have to work together, including stakeholders in youth education and health care, to appropriately inform the population at large and stimulate action. Action and Sustainability The plan for action summarized above condenses more specific goals and objectives created by the Violence <strong>Against</strong> Women Prevention Advisory Committee (VAWPAC), now called the Interpersonal Violence Prevention Collaborative (IVPC), representing wider input from their constituents. The more detailed document appears in an appendix of this report and serves as an additional resource in the emerging statewide initiative to focus on prevention of sexual assault, domestic violence and stalking as public health A STRATEGIC PLAN TO PREVENT VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN TEXAS 10
Executive Summary issues. This report contains an extensive bibliography of current related research, analyses of the state stakeholder survey of existing primary prevention efforts and needs, a record of stakeholders involved in the planning process, a resource guide of programs underway in the state and nationally and links to many internet sites with relevant information. Many stakeholders have already committed to working together to focus on making primary prevention of violence against women a public health priority by signing on to participate in the implementation of pieces of the plan for action presented here. In addition, many more will be invited to participate in the next phase of this initiative. This strategic plan was developed by building on the experience and knowledge of those committed to ending sexual assault, domestic violence and stalking in <strong>Texas</strong>. It will be implemented only through sustained commitment, creative use of resources and continued collaboration, respecting each Texan’s ability to help solve these serious health problems. 11 A STRATEGIC PLAN TO PREVENT VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN TEXAS
