Documenting Domestic Violence Services, Client Needs, and Client Outcomes The Final Report of the Colorado Tool Development Project

The study described in this report is Phase II of an ongoing effort to document community based domestic violence (DV) advocacy services and measure outcomes. In October 2016, the Domestic Violence Program (DVP) convened a group of stakeholders to create and/or identify (1) an assessment tool to help DV advocates identify clients’ needs at intake and (2) a client outcome measure that was appropriate for use in a DV advocacy organization and for reporting to a state funding agency.
