Abstract
My Sister’s Café is a volunteer-based commercial enterprise that provides victims of intimate partner violence the opportunity to gain professional experience, financial stability, and supplemental funding. In order to prevent and respond to incidents of intimate partner violence in its workplace, a safety manual for individuals working in the café is necessary. No formalized safety handbook to inform volunteers of what to do if an intimate partner violence incident occurred in their workplace existed before. This safety handbook ensures the success and safety of volunteers working at My Sister’s Café by providing them with information regarding food and sanitation safety, injury prevention, and intimate partner violence incident prevention and response policies.
