| Desc | PRAXIS HAS EARNED A NATIONAL REPUTATION FOR INNOVATIVE AND VICTIM-FOCUSED APPROACHES TO WORKING WITH LEGAL AND HUMAN SERVICE INSTITUTIONS TO CREATE DETERRENTS TO VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. SINCE 1998 WE HAVE IMPLEMENTED COMPREHENSIVE AND TARGETED TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROJECTS FOR THE U. S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, OFFICE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN (OVW) FOR THEIR GRANTEES IN VARIOUS GRANT PROGRAMS (RURAL, SUPERVISED VISITATION AND SAFE EXCHANGE, AND GRANTS TO ENCOURAGE ARREST). THE PRIMARY FOCUS OF OUR WORK IS TO UNCOVER AND REFORM INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT FOR VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. AS A NATIONAL TRAINING AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROVIDER, PRAXIS HAS WORKED WITH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE SEEKING TO RESPOND TO AND END VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN RURAL AND SUBURBAN COMMUNITIES, URBAN CENTERS AND NATIVE TRIBES. PRAXIS EMPLOYS A WIDE RANGE OF STRATEGIES TO SHARE INNOVATIONS AND CHANGE CONDITIONS THAT PRODUCE INJUSTICE INCLUDING: TRAINING INSTITUTES, WEBINARS, AND AUDIO CONFERENCES FEATURING NATIONAL EXPERTS AND PEER-TO-PEER DIALOGUES; ROUNDTABLES CONVENED TO DELVE DEEP INTO ISSUES AND FOSTER CREATIVE THINKING; COMPREHENSIVE TOOL KITS TO HELP APPLY NEW APPROACHES STEP-BY-STEP; EMERGING ISSUE THINK PIECES; CONFERENCE PRESENTATIONS; AND A WEBSITE RICH WITH FREE MATERIALS. IN SIXTEEN YEARS WE HAVE CONDUCTED DOZENS OF ON-SITE CONSULTATIONS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY; PROVIDED MORE THAN 450 ADVOCACY AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM TRAININGS; CONDUCTED OVER NINETY SAFETY AND ACCOUNTABILITY AUDITS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LOCAL COMMUNITIES; AND PRODUCED NUMEROUS TRAINING AND TA RESOURCES INCLUDING ONLINE TRAINING COURSES, PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS, NEEDS ASSESSMENTS, ORGANIZING MANUALS, TRAINING GUIDES, AND COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING TOOLKITS. OUR CURRENT PROJECTS INCLUDE: ADVOCACY LEARNING CENTER - A COMPREHENSIVE PROJECT TO BUILD KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS FOR EFFECTIVE, HIGH-QUALITY INDIVIDUAL, INSTITUTIONAL, AND COMMUNITY ADVOCACY ON BEHALF OF WOMEN AND SURVIVORS OF ALL FORMS OF VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. THE ADVOCACY LEARNING CENTER IS A NATIONAL PROJECT IN PARTNERSHIP WITH MANAVI (THE FIRST U.S. ADVOCACY ORGANIZATION FOR SOUTH ASIAN BATTERED WOMEN), THE U.S. OFFICE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN, AND A HOST OF OTHER MINNESOTA-BASED AND NATIONAL ADVOCATES AND TRAINERS. TEAMS OF ADVOCATES AND THEIR AGENCY LEADERS FROM DOZENS OF STATES, TRIBAL NATIONS, AND U.S. TERRITORIES COME TOGETHER TO LISTEN, SHARE, LEARN, TEACH, DEBATE AND CELEBRATE TOGETHER THROUGHOUT AN 18-MONTH COURSE. ALC PARTICIPANTS DELVE DEEP INTO CORE VALUES AND PRINCIPLES OF ADVOCACY IN A FOUR-DAY IMMERSION TRAINING; EXAMINE HOW WE CAN RESHAPE INSTITUTIONS TO PROTECT WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN A THREE-DAY SYSTEMS CHANGE INSTITUTE; AND THINK AND PLAN TOGETHER ON CHANGING CULTURAL CONDITIONS THAT GENERATE VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN AT A TWO-DAY COMMUNITY ADVOCACY TRAINING. THE TEAMS EXPLORE THE TOPICS MOST IMPORTANT TO THEM THROUGH PEER CONFERENCE CALLS AND WEBINARS AND EXPAND THEIR GRASP OF WHAT IS POSSIBLE THROUGH SITE VISITS TO MODEL SOCIAL JUSTICE ORGANIZATIONS AROUND THE COUNTRY-- ALL TOWARDS STRENGTHENING ADVOCACY ORGANIZATIONS TO CREATE FUNDAMENTAL SOCIAL CHANGE. 538 PEOPLE AND 206 ADVOCACY GROUPS HAVE COMPLETED OR STARTED THE COURSE SINCE 2009. BLUEPRINT FOR SAFETY DEMONSTRATION INITIATIVE - DOCUMENTING THE ADAPTATION OF ST. PAUL'S SUCCESSFUL BLUEPRINT FOR SAFETY MODEL IN COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. IN 2010, THE BLUEPRINT BECAME THE FIRST COMPREHENSIVE INTERAGENCY FRAMEWORK IN THE NATION FOR CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM RESPONSE TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. ITS DESIGN DREW ON HUNDREDS OF HOURS OF ANALYSIS, INTERVIEWS, AND DISCUSSIONS ACROSS THE SYSTEM, MULTIPLE BATTERED WOMEN'S ADVOCACY PROGRAMS, AND DOZENS OF DIVERSE COMMUNITY-BASED FOCUS GROUPS. ITS INTEGRATED APPROACH IS MAKING AN IMPACT IN ST PAUL: 911 CALL-TAKERS HAVE IMPROVED INFORMATION-GATHERING; LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS ARE WRITING STRONGER REPORTS; PROSECUTORS ARE CHARGING MORE CASES; JUDGES ARE STRENGTHENING CONDITIONS OF RELEASE; AND CONCURRENTLY, THE BLUEPRINT STEERING COMMITTEE IS ASSESSING RACIAL DISPARITIES IN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASES. THE OFFICE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN FUNDED THREE DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS TO ADAPT THE BLUEPRINT AND THEY ARE CURRENTLY UNDERWAY IN DULUTH, MN; NEW ORLEANS, LA; AND SHELBY COUNTY, TN. PRAXIS SERVES AS THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROVIDER FOR THE DEMONSTRATION INITIATIVE. AN ADAPTABLE VERSION OF THE BLUEPRINT IS AVAILABLE FOR FREE DOWNLOAD ON THE PRAXIS WEBSITE AND WE HAVE CONTINUED TO UPDATE THIS RESOURCE BY ADDING POLICY AND PROTOCOL TEMPLATES, TRAINING MEMOS, AND OTHER NEW MATERIAL DEVELOPED THROUGH THE NATIONAL DEMONSTRATION PROJECT. INSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS/COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT - SUPPORT TO COMMUNITIES TO CONDUCT COMMUNITY ASSESSMENTS, BEST-PRACTICE ASSESSMENTS AND SAFETY AND ACCOUNTABILITY AUDITS OF THEIR LOCAL CRIMINAL JUSTICE, CHILD WELFARE OR OTHER INSTITUTIONAL RESPONSE TO BATTERING. THE PROJECT ADDRESSES ADVANCED TRAINING ON SEXUAL ASSAULT, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, STALKING AND OTHER FORMS OF GENDER VIOLENCE FOR OVW GRANTEES AND OTHERS WHO ENGAGE IN INSTITUTIONAL CHANGE WORK INCLUDING NON-PROFIT NONGOVERNMENTAL VICTIM ADVOCATES, PERSONNEL INVOLVED IN DEVELOPING OR ENHANCING CRIMINAL JUSTICE RESPONSES TO DOMESTIC AND SEXUAL ASSAULT, STALKING AND DATING VIOLENCE THROUGH COORDINATED COMMUNITY RESPONSES (CCRS) AND SEXUAL ASSAULT RESPONSE TEAMS (SARTS), CRIMINAL JUSTICE PRACTITIONERS, HUMAN SERVICE PROVIDERS, CHILD PROTECTION OFFICIALS, PROBATION AGENTS, COURT PERSONNEL, MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, JUDGES, LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND OFFICERS, HOUSING PROVIDERS, AND OTHER RELEVANT PARTNERS RESPONDING TO VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. PRAXIS OFFERS GRANTEES A METHOD OF INSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS AND CHANGE ROOTED IN THE FIELD OF SOCIOLOGY CALLED INSTITUTIONAL ETHNOGRAPHY (IE). IT PROVIDES A METHOD FOR ACTIVISTS AND REPRESENTATIVES FROM INSTITUTIONS THAT PROCESS "CASES" TO MOVE AWAY FROM SIMPLY TRAINING PRACTITIONERS TO THINK DIFFERENTLY ABOUT THESE CASES TOWARD APPROACHES THAT ALTER ONGOING CASE PROCESSING ROUTINES THAT ULTIMATELY SHAPE CASE OUTCOMES. PRAXIS PROVIDES ON-SITE AND DISTANCE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE FOR COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND CONDUCTS AN ANNUAL COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT INSTITUTE WHERE PARTICIPANTS GET HANDS ON PRACTICE DEVELOPING SKILLS IN INTERVIEWING, FOCUS GROUP FACILITATION, AND TEXT ANALYSIS AS WELL AS EXPERIENCE ST. PAUL PRACTITIONERS IN ACTION THROUGH RIDE-ALONGS AND COURT OBSERVATIONS. IN 2014, PRAXIS COMPLETED A DRAFT OF A NEW INSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS TOOL SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO EXAMINE AND CHANGE THE CHILD PROTECTION AND JUVENILE COURT SYSTEMS' RESPONSES TO CASES INVOLVING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT-THE CHILD WELFARE TOOLKIT. THIS TOOL IS CURRENTLY BEING TESTED IN WRIGHT COUNTY, MN. RURAL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN - DEVELOPING SUCCESSFUL RURAL MULTI-AGENCY COLLABORATIONS TO CONFRONT SEXUAL ASSAULT, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, AND STALKING. THIS PROJECT PROVIDES TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO ALL OFFICE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN RURAL GRANTEES TO SUPPORT THEIR COORDINATED COMMUNITY RESPONSES (CCR) TO VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN; SPECIALIZED TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO A GROUP OF RURAL GRANTEES TO IMPLEMENT CORE CCR ELEMENTS AND REPLICABLE MODELS; TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO STRENGTHEN ADVOCACY LEADERSHIP IN CREATING SYSTEM CHANGE AND INDIVIDUAL ADVOCACY SKILLS; AND CENTRALIZED/COORDINATED RURAL-SPECIFIC TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE INFORMATION. IN ADDITION TO PROVIDING ONGOING TRAINING, TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND ON SITE CONSULTATIONS FOR RURAL GRANTEES, PRAXIS LAUNCHED A NEWSLETTER FOR RURAL GRANTEES THIS YEAR AND COMPLETED A RURAL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR THE OFFICE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. | Desc |

| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A | RESPOND TO AND END VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN RURAL AND SUBURBAN COMMUNITIES, URBAN CENTERS AND NATIVE TRIBES. PRAXIS EMPLOYS A WIDE RANGE OF STRATEGIES TO SHARE INNOVATIONS AND CHANGE CONDITIONS THAT PRODUCE INJUSTICE INCLUDING: TRAINING INSTITUTES, WEBINARS, AND AUDIO CONFERENCES FEATURING NATIONAL EXPERTS AND PEER-TO-PEER DIALOGUES; ROUNDTABLES CONVENED TO DELVE DEEP INTO ISSUES AND FOSTER CREATIVE THINKING; COMPREHENSIVE TOOL KITS TO HELP APPLY NEW APPROACHES STEP-BY-STEP; EMERGING ISSUE THINK PIECES; CONFERENCE PRESENTATIONS; AND A WEBSITE RICH WITH FREE MATERIALS. IN SIXTEEN YEARS WE HAVE CONDUCTED DOZENS OF ON-SITE CONSULTATIONS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY; PROVIDED MORE THAN 450 ADVOCACY AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM TRAININGS; CONDUCTED OVER NINETY SAFETY AND ACCOUNTABILITY AUDITS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LOCAL COMMUNITIES; AND PRODUCED NUMEROUS TRAINING AND TA RESOURCES INCLUDING ONLINE TRAINING COURSES, PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS, NEEDS ASSESSMENTS, ORGANIZING MANUALS, TRAINING GUIDES, AND COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING TOOLKITS. OUR CURRENT PROJECTS INCLUDE: ADVOCACY LEARNING CENTER - A COMPREHENSIVE PROJECT TO BUILD KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS FOR EFFECTIVE, HIGH-QUALITY INDIVIDUAL, INSTITUTIONAL, AND COMMUNITY ADVOCACY ON BEHALF OF WOMEN AND SURVIVORS OF ALL FORMS OF VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. THE ADVOCACY LEARNING CENTER IS A NATIONAL PROJECT IN PARTNERSHIP WITH MANAVI (THE FIRST U.S. ADVOCACY ORGANIZATION FOR SOUTH ASIAN BATTERED WOMEN), THE U.S. OFFICE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN, AND A HOST OF OTHER MINNESOTA-BASED AND NATIONAL ADVOCATES AND TRAINERS. TEAMS OF ADVOCATES AND THEIR AGENCY LEADERS FROM DOZENS OF STATES, TRIBAL NATIONS, AND U.S. TERRITORIES COME TOGETHER TO LISTEN, SHARE, LEARN, TEACH, DEBATE AND CELEBRATE TOGETHER THROUGHOUT AN 18-MONTH COURSE. ALC PARTICIPANTS DELVE DEEP INTO CORE VALUES AND PRINCIPLES OF ADVOCACY IN A FOUR-DAY IMMERSION TRAINING; EXAMINE HOW WE CAN RESHAPE INSTITUTIONS TO PROTECT WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN A THREE-DAY SYSTEMS CHANGE INSTITUTE; AND THINK AND PLAN TOGETHER ON CHANGING CULTURAL CONDITIONS THAT GENERATE VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN AT A TWO-DAY COMMUNITY ADVOCACY TRAINING. THE TEAMS EXPLORE THE TOPICS MOST IMPORTANT TO THEM THROUGH PEER CONFERENCE CALLS AND WEBINARS AND EXPAND THEIR GRASP OF WHAT IS POSSIBLE THROUGH SITE VISITS TO MODEL SOCIAL JUSTICE ORGANIZATIONS AROUND THE COUNTRY-- ALL TOWARDS STRENGTHENING ADVOCACY ORGANIZATIONS TO CREATE FUNDAMENTAL SOCIAL CHANGE. 538 PEOPLE AND 206 ADVOCACY GROUPS HAVE COMPLETED OR STARTED THE COURSE SINCE 2009. BLUEPRINT FOR SAFETY DEMONSTRATION INITIATIVE - DOCUMENTING THE ADAPTATION OF ST. PAUL'S SUCCESSFUL BLUEPRINT FOR SAFETY MODEL IN COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. IN 2010, THE BLUEPRINT BECAME THE FIRST COMPREHENSIVE INTERAGENCY FRAMEWORK IN THE NATION FOR CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM RESPONSE TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. ITS DESIGN DREW ON HUNDREDS OF HOURS OF ANALYSIS, INTERVIEWS, AND DISCUSSIONS ACROSS THE SYSTEM, MULTIPLE BATTERED WOMEN'S ADVOCACY PROGRAMS, AND DOZENS OF DIVERSE COMMUNITY-BASED FOCUS GROUPS. ITS INTEGRATED APPROACH IS MAKING AN IMPACT IN ST PAUL: 911 CALL-TAKERS HAVE IMPROVED INFORMATION-GATHERING; LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS ARE WRITING STRONGER REPORTS; PROSECUTORS ARE CHARGING MORE CASES; JUDGES ARE STRENGTHENING CONDITIONS OF RELEASE; AND CONCURRENTLY, THE BLUEPRINT STEERING COMMITTEE IS ASSESSING RACIAL DISPARITIES IN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASES. THE OFFICE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN FUNDED THREE DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS TO ADAPT THE BLUEPRINT AND THEY ARE CURRENTLY UNDERWAY IN DULUTH, MN; NEW ORLEANS, LA; AND SHELBY COUNTY, TN. PRAXIS SERVES AS THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROVIDER FOR THE DEMONSTRATION INITIATIVE. AN ADAPTABLE VERSION OF THE BLUEPRINT IS AVAILABLE FOR FREE DOWNLOAD ON THE PRAXIS WEBSITE AND WE HAVE CONTINUED TO UPDATE THIS RESOURCE BY ADDING POLICY AND PROTOCOL TEMPLATES, TRAINING MEMOS, AND OTHER NEW MATERIAL DEVELOPED THROUGH THE NATIONAL DEMONSTRATION PROJECT. INSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS/COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT - SUPPORT TO COMMUNITIES TO CONDUCT COMMUNITY ASSESSMENTS, BEST-PRACTICE ASSESSMENTS AND SAFETY AND ACCOUNTABILITY AUDITS OF THEIR LOCAL CRIMINAL JUSTICE, CHILD WELFARE OR OTHER INSTITUTIONAL RESPONSE TO BATTERING. THE PROJECT ADDRESSES ADVANCED TRAINING ON SEXUAL ASSAULT, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, STALKING AND OTHER FORMS OF GENDER VIOLENCE FOR OVW GRANTEES AND OTHERS WHO ENGAGE IN INSTITUTIONAL CHANGE WORK INCLUDING NON-PROFIT NONGOVERNMENTAL VICTIM ADVOCATES, PERSONNEL INVOLVED IN DEVELOPING OR ENHANCING CRIMINAL JUSTICE RESPONSES TO DOMESTIC AND SEXUAL ASSAULT, STALKING AND DATING VIOLENCE THROUGH COORDINATED COMMUNITY RESPONSES (CCRS) AND SEXUAL ASSAULT RESPONSE TEAMS (SARTS), CRIMINAL JUSTICE PRACTITIONERS, HUMAN SERVICE PROVIDERS, CHILD PROTECTION OFFICIALS, PROBATION AGENTS, COURT PERSONNEL, MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, JUDGES, LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND OFFICERS, HOUSING PROVIDERS, AND OTHER RELEVANT PARTNERS RESPONDING TO VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. PRAXIS OFFERS GRANTEES A METHOD OF INSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS AND CHANGE ROOTED IN THE FIELD OF SOCIOLOGY CALLED INSTITUTIONAL ETHNOGRAPHY (IE). IT PROVIDES A METHOD FOR ACTIVISTS AND REPRESENTATIVES FROM INSTITUTIONS THAT PROCESS "CASES" TO MOVE AWAY FROM SIMPLY TRAINING PRACTITIONERS TO THINK DIFFERENTLY ABOUT THESE CASES TOWARD APPROACHES THAT ALTER ONGOING CASE PROCESSING ROUTINES THAT ULTIMATELY SHAPE CASE OUTCOMES. PRAXIS PROVIDES ON-SITE AND DISTANCE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE FOR COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND CONDUCTS AN ANNUAL COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT INSTITUTE WHERE PARTICIPANTS GET HANDS ON PRACTICE DEVELOPING SKILLS IN INTERVIEWING, FOCUS GROUP FACILITATION, AND TEXT ANALYSIS AS WELL AS EXPERIENCE ST. PAUL PRACTITIONERS IN ACTION THROUGH RIDE-ALONGS AND COURT OBSERVATIONS. IN 2014, PRAXIS COMPLETED A DRAFT OF A NEW INSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS TOOL SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO EXAMINE AND CHANGE THE CHILD PROTECTION AND JUVENILE COURT SYSTEMS' RESPONSES TO CASES INVOLVING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT-THE CHILD WELFARE TOOLKIT. THIS TOOL IS CURRENTLY BEING TESTED IN WRIGHT COUNTY, MN. RURAL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN - DEVELOPING SUCCESSFUL RURAL MULTI-AGENCY COLLABORATIONS TO CONFRONT SEXUAL ASSAULT, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, AND STALKING. THIS PROJECT PROVIDES TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO ALL OFFICE ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN RURAL GRANTEES TO SUPPORT THEIR COORDINATED COMMUNITY RESPONSES (CCR) TO VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN; SPECIALIZED TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO A GROUP OF RURAL GRANTEES TO IMPLEMENT CORE CCR ELEMENTS AND REPLICABLE MODELS; TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO STRENGTHEN ADVOCACY LEADERSHIP IN CREATING SYSTEM CHANGE AND INDIVIDUAL ADVOCACY SKILLS; AND CENTRALIZED/COORDINATED RURAL-SPECIFIC TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE INFORMATION.
