Colorado Sexual Violence Prevention Program - The overall purpose of the Colorado SVP program is to support the implementation of community and societal-level sexual violence (SV) prevention strategies that promote health equity and reduce SV victimization and perpetration. Components of this work include building infrastructure for SV prevention, enhancing an existing state action plan, and using data to inform action. CDPHE will focus on strategies that create protective environments, strengthen economic supports, and promote social norms to increase protective factors and decrease risk factors related to SV and social and structural determinants of health driving SV. CDPHE will track and monitor short-term and intermediate outcomes associated with SV and work with the CDC to develop strategies for measuring outcomes that demonstrate long-term impact on SV. Specific outcomes for the proposed project include: Short term: 1) Increased capacity to implement and evaluate primary prevention of SV at the community- and societal- levels within SHDs; 2) Increased capacity to promote and incorporate health equity program activities relevant to SV prevention among partner organizations; 3) Increased partner awareness of states/territories efforts to prevent SV; 4) Increased partner and community awareness of effective primary prevention strategies and the disparate burden of SV; 5) Increased coordination and collaboration among partners and between SHDs, SA coalitions, Tribal SA coalitions, representatives from underserved communities and other sectors to prevent SV; 6) Increased community-level implementation of SV prevention strategies; 7) Increased implementation of prevention strategies among marginalized communities and populations (BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and individuals with disabilities) with disproportionately high rates of SV; 8) Increased implementation of prevention strategies that seek to prevent SV by addressing social and structural determinants of health; 9) Increased access and use of data to understand inequities within populations and communities (BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and individuals with disabilities) with disproportionately high rates of SV; 10) Increased monitoring and evaluation activities and sharing of data related to SV prevention Mid-term: 1) Increased capacity for statewide program implementation and SV prevention; 2) Increased partner support to implement, evaluate, and adapt state- and community-level strategies to prevent SV; 3) Increased reach of prevention strategies that impact communities and populations (BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and individuals with disabilities) with disproportionately high rates of SV; 4) Increase in number of community- and societal-level strategies that promote health equity and reduce inequities in SV by addressing social and structural determinants of health; 5) Increase in protective factors and decrease in risk factors associated with SV; 6) Increased use of data-driven decision making to reduce inequities impacting populations and communities with disproportionately high rates of SV; 7) Increased state- and community-level monitoring of trends in SV outcomes and SDOH (social determinants of health) Long-term: 1) Decrease in rates of SV, particularly in communities disproportionately burdened with high rates of SV; 2) Decrease in rates of SV perpetration and victimization at the state or territory level; 3) Reduce inequities in SDOHs primarily in communities and populations (BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and individuals with disabilities) to reduce have a profound that impact on disparities in SV rates
