Outcomes & Impact: Highlights from 28 Safety & Accountability Audits Conducted Across the United States

In early 2016, Praxis distributed a survey to communities asking them to document concrete changes in their institutional responses to violence against women that they could attribute to having conducted a Safety & Accountability Audit. The survey also asked them to document the impact those changes made in the experiences of survivors and offenders with those institutions. We also spoke with several audit team members to gather similar information. All told, we gathered information about the impact and outcomes of 28 Safety & Accountability Audits and highlight what we found out in the document below.
