CDC’s Latest VetoViolence Enhancements
Check out the latest enhancements to the VetoViolence website!
Since its initial launch in 2009, VetoViolence has continued to evolve through the addition of multiple tools, trainings, and resources. As VetoViolence has expanded, so has its audience. In 2017, CDC examined how user-focused enhancements could improve usability and understanding of what works to prevent violence.
Guided by user input
We gained valuable insight about how to improve our site through a long process of analyzing data from customer satisfaction surveys, interviews with stakeholders, a comprehensive content audit, and key Web metrics.
As a result, we have repackaged VetoViolence’s content in a way that demonstrates the shared connections across violence types and prevention efforts while also showing the relationships between VetoViolence’s existing resources, tools, and trainings.
