The document discusses the importance of considering intersectionality when examining intimate partner violence (IPV). It notes that IPV affects people from all backgrounds, but that the experiences and needs of survivors often differ based on their social identities and the intersection of those identities. Failing to acknowledge these intersections can negatively impact IPV policies, prevention efforts, and support services. The authors argue for an approach to IPV that considers how social categories like gender, race, class, sexuality and more, overlap and influence individuals' experiences.
