MOSAIC

A national strategy, a local response

MOSAIC helps states and local communities strengthen their efforts to prevent and respond to intimate partner violence, sexual assault, stalking, trafficking, and other interconnected forms of violence against women.

Led by BWJP, in collaboration with local and national partners, MOSAIC offers a comprehensive strategy to improve public health and safety, inspired by the U.S. National Plan to End Gender Based Violence: Strategies for Action (National GBV Action Plan).

An estimated 10 million people in the U.S. are directly affected each year by gender-based violence (GBV), with long term health, economic, and generational impacts.

Yet systems remain fragmented, inequitable, and too often overlook the leadership of communities closest to the issue. A comprehensive vision for ending violence and creating thriving communities must address these challenges.

MOSAIC brings that vision to life on the ground, reimagining community responses that center survivors and drive local change.

MOSAIC shares proven strategies designed to respond to emergent needs with expertise, collaborative tools, and relevant data.

MOSAIC Conference Recap

“While there are many important efforts to prevent and address domestic and sexual violence, a lot of these efforts are fragmented and siloed… MOSAIC is an initiative seeking to strengthen innovation and expand partnerships across many sectors to make sure all victims/survivors have a wide range of pathways to safety, justice, healing, and wellbeing.”
