The National Network to End Domestic Violence (NNEDV) is a not-for-profit organization incorporated in the District of Columbia since 1995. It is a network of state domestic violence coalitions, representing over 2,000 member organizations nationwide. The organization advocates for legislation, such as the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act and funding on a national level for state organizations that provide services to victims of domestic violence.[1]
The National Network to End Domestic Violence testifies before the U.S. Congress on domestic violence issues to assisting state coalitions in better serving the needs of the victim by presenting research on domestic violence issues for pending legislation.[2]
