Twenty years after Congress passed the first Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), violence against women has been reduced yet intimate partner violence and sexual violence remain major public health problems. Women continue to be disproportionately impacted by these types of violence. The #VetoViolence Against Women in 6 Words (1 Photo, 6 Words. #VetoViolence) user-generated content project (described below question 9) and its resulting compilation video are essential components in telling public health's story of preventing violence against women in a digital and visual showcase.
