A core function of the HAVI is to help launch and support new and emerging hospital-based or hospital-linked violence intervention programs. In addition to the many free resources available to help establish and support programs, we offer a range of training and technical assistance services for interested people and programs.
If you are just starting out, we recommend that you read the Key Components of Hospital-based Violence Intervention Programs Handbook and purchase or download for free the best-practices guide Violence is Preventable. Training and technical assistance include but are not limited to:
One-time and ongoing trainings in person and/or by phone or Zoom conference
Preset training modules as well as tailored coaching and consultation
Onsite training and offsite visits to established programs, including job-shadowing
Access to sample program materials (including program goals and objectives, client intake, needs-assessment and case-planning forms, and job announcements)
To find out how the HAVI can help you launch an HVIP, or if you are interested in getting technical assistance to help your HVIP operate more effectively, please fill out this online form in order to schedule an informational phone session with a member of our HAVI training and technical assistance team.
