About Us

FAMILY VIOLENCE PREVENTION FUND

For three decades, the Family Violence Prevention Fund (FVPF) has worked to end violence against women, children and families everywhere. Instrumental in developing the landmark Violence Against Women Act passed by Congress in 1994, reauthorizing it in 2005 and most recently, for conceiving the International Violence Against Women Act, FVPF is known for its model training and education programs to enlist influencers, leaders, and new allies, including men and youth, in proven solutions. FVPF's reputation for transforming the way health care providers, police, judges, employers and others support survivors and work to end violence and its success in building leadership within communities to ensure that violence prevention efforts become self-sustaining has earned several national awards, including support from major foundations, Congress, and the White House.

The RESPECT! Campaign℠

The RESPECT! Campaign is the Family Violence Prevention Fund's (FVPF) latest initiative to advance a national movement to promote healthy relationships through positive role modeling and respect education. By individuals everywhere to be part of the solution, the RESPECT! Campaign provides everyday tools and resources to help teach young people about respect in relationships. Through this campaign, the Family Violence Prevention Fund seeks to amplify a national conversation about the critical role that parents, teachers, coaches, and other living, breathing role models to young people have to play in helping all of our sons and daughters shape a world that is free of relationship violence.
