#LIVEhighlights #TikTokLIVE #LIVE **Introduction to the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)** The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), enacted in 1994, represents a landmark piece of legislation in the United States aimed at addressing and combating domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. Spearheaded by then-Senator Joe Biden, VAWA was the first federal legislation to acknowledge and address the pervasive issue of violence against women. It has since been reauthorized multiple times, each iteration enhancing protections and expanding services. VAWA provides critical funding for victim services, improves the criminal justice response to violence, and fosters community-driven initiatives to prevent violence. By integrating law enforcement, legal aid, and community organizations, VAWA creates a comprehensive framework for supporting survivors and holding perpetrators accountable. #DomesticViolence #VAWA #SexualAssault #Stalking #SurvivorSupport #VictimServices #ViolencePrevention #LegalProtection #CriminalJusticeReform #communitysafetygrants
