Translating Research into Policy & Practice: The OPSVAW with Carol Jordan
Looking toward a future that protects women and decreases violence, in 2014 the College of Arts & Sciences created the Office for Policy Studies on Violence Against Women (OPSVAW) to the College. The OPSVAW, headed by Carol Jordan, delves into research associated with gendered violence and seeks to use this research to improve policy and the lives of women.
