Abstract: Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) refers to aggressive behavior that occurs within current and former intimate relationships and leads to physical, sexual, and/or psychological harm (Robertson et. al., 2024). Harmful behaviors may be physical aggression, sexual coercion, psychological abuse and controlling actions (World Health Organization (WHO), 2017; Fazel et al., 2024). Historically called "domestic violence" (DV), IPV can occur among heterosexual or same-sex couples (St. Lewis & Robinson, 2017). IPV is a public health problem that costs the U.S. over $5.8 billion yearly (Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), 2014) statistically leading with women victims who are often the primary caregiver of children (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP), 2020). According to Arnett (2024), research findings reveal a yearly exposure rate of 1 in 15 children. Effectively addressing these issues from a public health perspective can only be realized with strong inclusive partnerships at the global, regional, national and/or local levels (Oprisan et. al., 2021). This call to action must include a focus on the public health viewpoint and two causal and extenuating relationship factors: bullying, which is the number one discipline problem reported within the K-12 setting, and the sudden impact of COVID, which contextually changed the ecosystem. Emerging data show that since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic violence against women and girls, particularly domestic violence, has intensified (United Nations Development Program (UNDP) (2021). This article will discuss the impact of these public health nuisances and problems upon society and the field of education in the 21st century. An examination of the precursors and dynamics of IPV specific to at-risk childhood behaviors will be discussed and analyzed. And equally important, CDCP evidence-based micro, mezzo and macro strategic interventions and theoretical frameworks embraced and utilized by the social work profession will be addressed. These methods have been proven effective in therapeutic, educational and community settings. (Gibson, 2019a; Gibson, 2023).
