About Coalitions
State and territory domestic violence coalitions have many things in common, and each coalition also has unique features defining what and who they are, what they do, and how they do it. “(T)he Defining State Domestic Violence Coalitions – Essential Criteria document… assists State Domestic Violence Coalitions in assessing the essential criteria for defining who and what they are.” This section includes a checklist from that document, as well as information about how membership is handled by the various coalitions, and notes on one coalition’s merger with its state’s sexual assault coalition.
