华盛顿州反家庭暴力联盟的技术安全项目旨在提高家庭暴力受害者、幸存者和宣传人员对技术安全问题的认识和知识。该项目采用“培训培训员”模式，向家庭暴力服务提供者提供计算机和互联网资源，以便（1）增加华盛顿家庭暴力幸存者安全使用计算机和互联网的机会;（2）通过对幸存者进行技术安全和隐私方面的教育，减少施虐者带来的风险;（3）提高幸存者利用信息技术帮助自己和子女的能力。对项目的评估表明，该方案是必要的，有用的，有效的。消费者满意度很高，在计算机信心和计算机安全知识方面有明显的改善。未来的程序开发和进一步研究的领域进行了讨论。
The Technology Safety Project of the Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence was designed to increase awareness and knowledge of technology safety issues for domestic violence victims, survivors, and advocacy staff. The project used a "train the trainer" model and provided computer and Internet resources to domestic violence service providers in order to (1) increase safe computer and Internet access for domestic violence survivors in Washington; (2) reduce the risk posed by abusers by educating survivors about technology safety and privacy; and (3) increase the ability of survivors to help themselves and their children through information technology. Evaluation of the project suggests that the program is needed, useful, and effective. Consumer satisfaction was high and there was perceived improvement in computer confidence and knowledge of computer safety. Areas for future program development and further research are discussed.
