The National Advisory Committee on Violence Against Women is an advisory body which is co-chaired by the Attorney General and the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. Members are invited to serve on the National Advisory Committee for a two-year term. As an advisory body, the committee convenes as a group, at least twice a year, to address violence against women. National Advisory Committee members share their thoughts, ideas, and expertise by submitting recommendations on a variety of priority issues as the federal government develops its policies to address the crimes of domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking.
