Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық жөніндегі АҚШ кеңсесі (OVW) 1994 жылғы Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық туралы заңнан (VAWA) кейін құрылды. Заң 2005, 2013 және 2022 жылдары жаңаланды. Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық туралы заң кеңсеге әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылыққа жауап беру және оны азайту жөніндегі жұмысты, оның ішінде колледжтерде және үйлерде жүргізуді міндеттейді. Бұл акт Сенатпен бекітілді. Директордың басты орынбасары директордың тікелей басшылығында жұмыс істейді, сондай-ақ директордың орынбасарлары да осы басшылықта болады. 2017 жылдың қаңтарына дейін Беа Хансон, Ph.D., директор міндетін атқарушы және директордың басты орынбасары болды. Хансон 2017 жылдың қаңтар айында отставкаға кеткеннен кейін директордың орынбасары Надин М. Нойфвилл директор міндетін атқарушы болды. Мысалы, Жыныстық зорлық-зомбылыққа көмек көрсету бағдарламасы жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық құрбандарына және олардың отбасы мүшелеріне көмектеседі. Құрылғаннан бері Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық жөніндегі кеңсе мұндай жобаларға 6 миллиард доллардан астам гранттарды бөлді. Диана Стюарт 2001 жылдың қазан айында Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық жөніндегі кеңсе директоры болды. Стюарт 1989 жылдан бері отбасылық зорлық-зомбылық құрбандарына көмектесіп келеді және 1996 жылдан бастап Юта штатының губернаторы Майк Левитттің отбасылық зорлық-зомбылық жөніндегі үйлестірушісі болып жұмыс істеді. Директор сондай-ақ елдегі түпкілікті американдық тайпалармен және АҚШ Федералдық үкіметінің басқа да кеңселерімен халықаралық деңгейде де қызмет етеді. Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық жөніндегі кеңсе директоры кеңсе берген барлық гранттар, ынтымақтастық келісімдері мен келісімшарттарды бақылайды және шамамен 400 миллион долларлық бюджетке жауапты болады (жаңа ережелер директорды ресми түрде тағайындауды талап етеді). Директор ретінде Стюарт гранттар мен ынтымақтастық келісімдерін елу пайызға арттырды, Президенттің Отбасылық Әділет Орталығы бастамасын іске асырды және Үнді әйелдерінің қауіпсіздігі бастамасын жасады. Бьюкенен (міндетін атқарушы директор) 1984 жылы Калифорния штатының Пенсильвания университетін және 1987 жылы Питтсбург университетінің құқық мектебін бітірген. Оның басшылығымен кеңсе Отбасылық Әділет Орталығы тұжырымдамасының бөлігі ретінде Нью-Орлеанда Отбасылық Әділет Орталығын ашты және үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық туралы халықтың білуін арттыру үшін хабарламалар (PSA) шығарды.

Қазіргі таңда қолданылып жүрген дискрециялық грант бағдарламалары
Атауы: Бағдарламаның сипаттамасы. Кампус грант бағдарламасы "Кампустағы үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылықты, танысудағы зорлық-зомбылықты, жыныстық зорлық-зомбылықты және қудалауды азайту гранттары" жоғары білім беру мекемелеріне олардың қызмет көрсетулерін, саясатын және хаттамаларын үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық, танысудағы зорлық-зомбылық, жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық және қудалау мәселелері бойынша жақсартуға көмектесу үшін қаржы бөледі.

Бұған қоса, грант құрбандардың, балалардың және отбасылардың жергілікті қызметтер мен ресурстарға қол жеткізуін жақсартуға бағытталған.

Сексуалдық зорлық-зомбылық қызметтері бағдарламасы. Бұл бағдарламадағы жеке гранттар американдық тайпаларға, сондай-ақ мәдени ерекшеліктері бар қауымдастықтарды қолдайтын коммерциялық емес ұйымдарға бөлінеді. Бұл гранттардың мақсаты – "жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық құрбандарына және осы мәселенің салдарынан зардап шеккендерге тікелей көмек көрсету және оған байланысты қолдау беру". Бұл қызметтерге адвокация, қолдау топтары, жедел желілер, дағдарысқа араласу, агенттік қызметкерлерін оқыту және агенттік қызметкерлерінің қоғамды қолжетімді қызметтер туралы хабардар етуі кіреді. Грантқа мемлекеттер, жергілікті билік органдары, үнді тайпаларының үкіметтері немесе ұйымдары, зейнеткер әйелдерге көмектесуде тәжірибесі бар немесе жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық, үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық, танысудағы зорлық-зомбылық және қудалау мәселелерін шешуде тәжірибесі бар коммерциялық емес және үкіметтік емес ұйымдар үміткер бола алады. Гранттың назар аударатын бағдарламалары мен салалары 50 жастан асқан құрбандарға қатысты жыныстық зорлық-зомбылыққа қарсы құқық қорғау органдарының, соттардың, үкімет пен қоғамның реакциясын жақсартуға, сондай-ақ өзара оқытуды және құрбандарға арналған қызметтерді жақсартуға бағытталған. Сонымен қатар, "Қамауға алу бағдарламасы" қоғамды тыңдауға, қарым-қатынас жасауға, проблемаларды анықтауға және құрбанның қауіпсіздігі мен қылмыскердің жауапкершілігін қамтамасыз ету үшін жаңа жауаптарды табуға шақырады. Гранттың мақсатына полиция бөлімдеріндегі қамауға алу бағдарламалары, судьялар мен полиция үшін жаңа саясат пен білім беру бағдарламалары, сондай-ақ үйлестірілген компьютерлік бақылау жүйелері мен саясатты орталықтандырылған полициямен жүзеге асыру кіреді. Тайпалық үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық және жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық күштерінің бірлестіктеріне гранттар беру. Тайпалық үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық және жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық күштерінің бірлестіктерінің бағдарламасы (Тайпалық бірлестіктер бағдарламасы) пайда көздемейтін ұйымдар, топтар және жеке тұлғалар үшін, олар тұратын әйелдерге көмек көрсету үшін үнді тайпаларында адвокаттық жүйелерді жақсартуға бағытталған. Тайпалық бірлестіктер бағдарламасы негізінен сот органдарымен және полициямен бірлесіп, мемлекет, тайпа немесе аумақ ішінде жыныстық зорлық-зомбылыққа жақсы үйлестірілген жауаптар ұйымдастыру үшін жұмыс істейді. Құқықтық көмек бағдарламасының басты мақсаты – инновациялық, бірлескен бағдарламалар арқылы зорлық-зомбылық қылмыстарының құрбандарына өкілдік ету. Ауылдық грант бағдарламасы. Ауылдық грант бағдарламасы ауылды жерлерде орын алатын жыныстық қылмыстардың жиілігін және әсерін азайтуға бағытталған. Ол қоғамның, соның ішінде сот жүйесінің мүшелерінің бірлесіп қолдауымен құрбандарға мүмкіндігінше көп қолдау көрсетуде. Көшуге көмек беру бағдарламасы. Үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық, танысудағы зорлық-зомбылық, қудалау немесе жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық құрбандарына арналған көшуге көмек беру бағдарламасы (Көшуге көмек беру бағдарламасы) құрбандарды тұрақты тұрғын үйге көшіруді мақсат етеді. Еркектер мен жастарды тарту бағдарламасы. Бұл бағдарлама ерлер мен ұлдарды әйелдер мен қыздармен жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық, үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық, танысудағы зорлық-зомбылық және қудалауды алдын алу үшін олардың одақтастары болуға шақыруға бағытталған қоғамдық білім беру кампанияларын және қоғамдық ұйымдастыруды құруға қолдау көрсетеді. Осы грантты алғандардың бірі ретінде, бұл бағдарлама ерлердің әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылықты алдын алудағы (тікелей де, жанама да) рөліне назар аударады. 2011 жылдың сәуір айында Әділет министрлігі 23 жобаға 6,9 миллион доллар көлемінде гранттар берілгенін хабарлады. Бұл бастамалар коммерциялық емес ұйымдар, мемлекеттік және үкіметтік мекемелер тарапынан "Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылықтан қорғау кеңсесінің (OVW) денсаулы қарым-қатынастар туралы гендерлік және мәдени білім беруді қолдауға және ерлер мен ұлдарға қоғамдық насихаттау күшін арттыруға жасаған үнемі күш-жігерінің" аясында ұсынылды. Бұл бағдарлама ерекше балаларға бағытталған: оның мақсаты үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық, танысудағы зорлық-зомбылық, жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық және қудалаудың жастарға тигізетін әсерін азайту және олардың болашақта зардап шегу тәуекелін азайту. Бұл бағдарлама орта және жоғары мектептерге студенттердің үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық, танысудағы зорлық-зомбылық, жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық немесе қудалау құрбандары үшін тиімді оқыту, қызметтер, алдын алу стратегиялары, саясаттар және үйлестірілген қоғамдық жауаптарды әзірлеуге және жүзеге асыруға көмек көрсетуге бағытталған. Бұл бағдарламалармен қатар, Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық актісін қабылдаған Сенат заңы Ұлттық үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық жедел желісін құрды, сондай-ақ полицияны оқытуға және сот жүйесіндегі басқа да қосымша оқытуға гранттар берді. Заң сонымен қатар үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылық, жыныстық зорлық-зомбылық және қудалауды қудалау бойынша қолданыстағы заңдарды қайта қарастырды және сот өкілеттігіндегі кемшіліктерді жоюға бағытталған жаңа заңдарды жасауды қамтамасыз етті. Break the Cycle коммерциялық емес ұйымының мәліметінше, осы гранттардың көптеген бағдарламаларының қоғамдық бағыты заңнаманы ел бойынша қызметтерді жақсарту, қолдау көрсету және қылмыстық әділет жүйесінің жауабын жақсартуда ықпалды етті. Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылықтан қорғау кеңсесі бұл сынды ескерді және қазіргі уақытта осы салаларды жақсарту үшін жаңа стратегияларды іздеп жатыр. Басқа сыншылар Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық актісі үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылықтан зардап шеккен ерлерге жеткілікті ресурстарды бөлмейтінін айтады. Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылықтан қорғау кеңсесі әйелдерді ғана зорлық-зомбылықтың құрбандары ретінде бейнелейтіні, ал ерлерді осы қылмыстардың жасаушылары ретінде көрсететіні туралы таластар бар. CDC мәліметтері бойынша, еркектердің 13,8% зорлық-зомбылыққа ұшырағанын хабарлады, бірақ Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық актісін қолдаушы ұйымдар, мысалы NNEDV, бұл көрсеткіш 37%-ға дейін өскенін айтады. Басқалары, мысалы, Конни Морелла Ұлттық еврей әйелдер кеңесі үшін, Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық актісі иммигрант әйелдерге жеткілікті қаражат бөлмейтінін және оларға мемлекеттік немесе федералдық көмек алу мүмкіндігінің жоқ екенін айтты. Американың қамқор әйелдері Әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылықтан қорғау кеңсесінің неке және денсаулы қарым-қатынастар туралы жақсы бейне жасауға және көбінесе тривиальды жағдайларға дейін үй ішіндегі зорлық-зомбылықтың мағынасын кеңейтудің орнына, нақты зорлық-зомбылық қылмыстарына назар аударуға тиіс екенін айтады, бұл "нағыз" құрбандарға ақшалай және сот көмегін азайтады.

Besides these specifically mentioned grant programs, the Senate bill that enacted the Violence Against Women Act also created National Domestic Violence Hotline and provided grants for police training and other additional training in the judicial system. The bill also reassessed current laws on prosecuting domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking and provided for the creation of new laws to address gaps in jurisdiction. According to the non profit organization Break the Cycle, the community focus of many of these grants has made the legislation influential in improving services, advocacy, and responses by criminal justice across the country. The Office on Violence Against Women has taken this criticism under consideration, and is currently in the process of finding new strategies to improve in these areas. Other critics postulate that the VAWA does not allocate enough resources to men who suffer from domestic violence. There are claims that the Office on Violence Against Women portrays women as the only victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, while men are solely perpetrators of these crimes. The CDC offers that 13.8% of males have reported abuse, but supporting organizations of the Violence Against Women Act, such as the NNEDV, posit that that number has actually increased up to 37%. Others, including Connie Morella for the National Council of Jewish Women, have said that the Violence Against Women Act does not allocate enough funds or provide assistance to immigrant women, who they say often cannot receive state or federal assistance because of their status. Concerned Women for America believe that the Office on Violence Against Women should do more to promote a better image of marriage and healthy relationships and focus on real abuse crimes, instead of using the VAWA to expand the meaning of domestic violence to more trivial cases and leaving less monetary funding and judiciary assistance for the 'real' victims. At present, the Office on Violence Against Women's definition of domestic violence encompasses all forms of abuse, including those of an emotional, economic, psychological, physical and sexual nature. The reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act on February 28, 2013 was achieved despite some significant controversy in regards to the new provisions of the Act that include the LGBT community, Native Tribes, and undocumented immigrants. Twenty two members of the U. S. House of representatives opposed the reauthorization because of the additional provision that protects those minority communities. However, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, partners in homosexual relationships say that they have encountered similar or greater levels of domestic violence in their lifetime than their straight counterparts. The 2013 re authorization of the Violence Against Women Act proved to be more challenging than its last re authorization in 2005, but the achieved changes focus mostly in who the Violence Against Women Act will now protect and how much money the Act allocates for helping those additional groups.

Міндетті тұтқындау туралы заңдар
Конгресс 2013 жылы әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық туралы заңды қайта бекітуге дайындалып жатқанда, Time журналы «отбасылық зорлық-зомбылық әлі де нашар хабарланатын қылмыс болып табылады және кейбір сыншылар міндетті тұтқындау саясаты осы мәселені күшейте түсті» деген пікірді білдіретін мақала жариялады. Бұл саясат құқық қорғау органдарын құрбандардың қатысуынсыз отбасылық зорлық-зомбылық істерін тергеп, алға жылжытуға бағытталды. 2000 жылы әйелдерге қарсы зорлық-зомбылық туралы заңды қарап, қайта бекіте отырып, Конгресс «міндетті тұтқындауға ынталандыру» саясатын «тұтқындауға ынталандыру» саясатына өзгертіп, оның назарын қылмыстық іс бойынша дәлелдерге негізделген тұтқындауға аударды.
While Congress was preparing to reauthorize Violence Against Women Act in 2013, Time published an article arguing that "[d]omestic violence is still a severely under reported crime and some critics say mandatory arrest policies have exacerbated this problem." These policies encouraged law enforcement to make arrests and move forward with domestic violence cases without the cooperation of victims. While reviewing and reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act in 2000, Congress changed from "encourage mandatory arrest" policies to "encourage arrest" policies instead, which focus on arresting based on probable cause.
