A critical need exists for a national surveillance system that will produce frequent, consistent, and reliable data on the magnitude and nature of intimate partner violence (IPV), sexual violence (SV), and stalking using consistent definitions and survey methods to evaluate trends over time. To address this need, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), in collaboration with the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), and the Department of Defense (DoD) has developed the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Surveillance System (NISVSS). The collaborative effort between agencies is motivated by the need to improve the understanding of IPV, SV, and stalking in the civilian, military, and American Indian/Alaska Native populations. The survey will be conducted among English and/or Spanish speaking male and female adults (18 years and older) living in the United States. NISVSS will collect population-based surveillance data, generating stable and precise annual prevalence estimates for IPV, SV, and stalking victimization at the national level. Lifetime, 12 month and 36 month prevalence data will be collected. As data collection continues across multiple years, sample sizes will increase and stable state-level lifetime prevalence data will also be available for both women and men. During the first year data will also be collected from: 1) female members of the active duty component of the US Armed Forces; and 2) female spouses of married male service members. NISVSS data will help inform public policies and prevention strategies at both the national and state levels and will help guide and evaluate progress toward reducing the substantial health and social burden associated with IPV, SV, and stalking.
