What it funds

Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.

The Addressing Gender Bias in Law Enforcement Response to Victims Demonstration Initiative will expand the Enhancing Law Enforcement Response to Victims (ELERV) strategy to improve police response to domestic violence and sexual assault with a special emphasis in minority and LGBTQ communities. The aim of the Initiative will be to integrate the ELERV strategy and the principles outlined in the DOJ guidance to Identifying and Preventing Gender Bias in Law Enforcement Response to Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence, released in December 2015, to reduce gender bias in police response to these crimes.
