Provision of training on Domestic Violence or Intimate Partner Violence is one of
CCFMTC's statutory directives, and this training was provided from 1996 through 2005.
Due to state budget cuts, current funding limits us to providing sexual assault and child sexual
abuse forensic medical training.
VisionOur vision is to provide training on Domestic Violence or Intimate Partner Violence
when funding becomes available. Our purpose is to increase access to trained
healthcare providers by victims of intimate partner violence, and to increase their knowledge, skills and abilities in this important subject area.
