Center on Violence Against Women and Children

In the spring of 2007, the Rutgers University School of Social Work formed the Center on Violence Against Women & Children.  VAWC facilitates a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach to research, training, and education aimed at eradicating violence against women and children.

The mission of the Center on Violence Against Women & Children is to strive to eliminate physical, sexual, and other forms of violence against women and children and the power imbalances that permit them.

This mission will be accomplished through the use of a collaborative approach that focuses on multidisciplinary research, education, and training that impacts communities and policy in New Jersey, the U.S., and throughout the world.
