National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS)

Overview

Intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and stalking can be challenging to monitor due to the sensitive nature of these forms of violence—NISVS can help. NISVS is an ongoing, nationally representative survey that gathers timely and reliable national and state-level data on sexual violence, stalking, and intimate partner violence victimization from adult women and men in the United States.

NISVS asks questions about these sensitive topics using a health and behavior frame to help maximize reliable reporting of these important public health issues. NISVS collects lifetime and 12-month prevalence data, describes who is most likely to experience these forms of violence, as well as information on the impacts and health consequences associated with these types of violence. NISVS data inform and improve prevention and response efforts.
