Hospital Violence Intervention Program (HVIP) Overview
|
Culturally competent case managers provide 24/7 response to victims of violence at four trauma hospitals during a teachable moment in the hospital setting. In the months following a patient’s release, they engage, assess, and link individuals to services such as education, counseling, employment, and victim services. TPI contracts with Southern California Crossroads and Soledad Enrichment Action to implement Hospital Violence Intervention Programs (HVIP) and co-convenes the HVI Consortium to improve collaboration and build a cohesive model to better serve communities.
