The Zero Tolerance for Domestic Violence Initiative (ZTDVI) applied for and received funds from the US Department of Justice, Office on Violence against Women (OVW), Domestic Violence Homicide Prevention Demonstration ("Project") in 2013. The Project is implemented in two phases - an assessment phase ("Phase I") and an implementation phase ("Phase II"). OVW completed Phase I in September 2014 and selected ZTDVI as one of four sites to participate in Phase II of the Project and implement the Lethality Assessment Program (LAP), a recognized promising practice. ZTDVI is engaging the Contractor to assist in carrying out activities consistent with the funding application.
