Project Profiles

The Knowledge Hub is pleased to host webpages promoting activities and learnings of projects which have conducted trauma and violence-informed intervention research to support health outcomes for people who have experienced gender-based violence and family violence across the life course. The projects, funded by the Public Health Agency of Canada, also came together to form Communities of Practice during their funding agreements to share learnings, best practices, identify and implement solutions to challenges that may have occurred during the implementation and evaluation processes.
