Michigan DELTA AHEAD - The Michigan Coalition to End Domestic and Sexual Violence (MCEDSV) is proposing to implement approaches toward the primary prevention of IPV that reflect the outer layers of the Social Ecological Model (SEM) and to address Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) at the community and societal levels of the SEM. Using evidence-informed strategies, MCEDSV will work to reduce risk factors for and increase protective factors against IPV perpetration. Building on past successes as part of various multi-sector collaborative efforts for IPV prevention we focus our prevention work on a survivor-centered, intersectional, and trauma-informed framework, and stay current with methods and research regarding best-practices in preventing violence in marginalized, underserved, and rural communities. Our goal of advancing health equity through addressing disparities in Michigan’s communities will be done through the six data-driven and community and societal-level approaches and strategies within four Policy and Program Efforts we are planning to implement and evaluate. The interrelated risk and protective factors we intend to address include IPV sanctions, gender norms and inequity, norms that support aggression, unemployment and economic opportunity, poverty, and collective neighborhood efficacy. Cross cutting outcomes include networking, collaboration, and support among partners; access/use of data related to IPV and risk/protective factors; national-level networking, collaboration, and learning; knowledge of IPV prevention and implementation efforts; use of evaluation methods in IPV prevention; statewide capacity to implement/evaluate primary prevention; policies that promote health equity/SDoH; long term decrease in IPV; increase in health equity and health outcomes through improved SDoH.
