(9:19 minutes) Preventing violence against women requires comprehensive approaches. Often, the best way to ensure a comprehensive strategy is to build a diverse coalition. This presentation highlights Collaboration Math, a tool used to develop more effective collaborations.

These materials were created by Prevention Institute, a national non-profit organization working to put prevention at the center of community well-being.

This presentation was adapted from the Prevention Connection Web Conference "What is Collaboration Math? Enhancing Cross-Sector Partnerships for Preventing Violence Against Women" held on March 11, 2008.
