findings from state domestic violence coalitions that have implemented 
IPV primary prevention activities through www.PreventIPVorg, and other 
means; 4) maintaining a virtual workspace to assist in the sharing of 
resources among state and territorial domestic violence coalitions that 
are engaged in IPV primary prevention activities; and 5) facilitating 
regular, ongoing communication between the IPV Prevention Council, ACF/
DFVPS, and CDC/DVP.
    In addition to the prevention activities, the grantee will 
coordinate an accessibility and sustainability peer-to-peer technical 
assistance collaborative with three to five state domestic violence 
coalitions, which may involve activities such as: (1) Identifying state 
coalitions with experience in addressing organizational accessibility 
challenges (i.e. mental health, substance use, men, and adolescent 
boys), or sustainability challenges (i.e. fiscal management or board 
management); (2) coordinating support to domestic violence 
organizations or coalitions experiencing accessibility or 
sustainability challenges; and (3) developing peer-informed 
accessibility and sustainability tools and resources, and a discussion 
forum, for use by all domestic violence coalitions.
