| Description | Intimate partner violence (IPV), also referred to as intimate partner abuse (IPA) occurs across all racial, ethnic, educational, and socio-economic backgrounds, and it can include physical, sexual, psychological, emotional, financial, and/or reproductive abuse. These forms of abuse can occur simultaneously, separately, or vary. The perpetrator is a current or former intimate partner and can be from any sexuality, including transgender. This can include rape, which is completed, attempted, and/or unwanted vaginal, anal, and/or oral penetration with a body part or object. Sexual coercion involves a perpetrator using non-physical means to pressure or coerce their partner to engage in unwanted vaginal, anal, or oral penetration without the use of force, but it is still considered a type of sexual abuse. A research on survivors of IPV from the National Coalition of Anti-Violence Programs (NCAVP) showed that 77% of IPV homicides and 54% of the total population sampled were people of color.
