Anti-Violence Worker Support

Communities of Practice

The Communities of Practice (CoPs) are forums for programs to share information and resources, to identify and discuss shared concerns and issues, to celebrate successes, to ask questions and find answers, to network, and to engage in discussion on work-related issues. Get more information in our Community of Practice Q&A.

EVA BC has seven Communities of Practice for programs and coordination initiatives under our provincial umbrella:

Program Support Communities of Practice

  • Community-Based Victim Services (CBVS) programs
  • Sexual Assault Services (SAS) programs
  • Community Coordination
