FREE VIRTUAL TRAINING on DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
November 14, 2024 at 1:00 PM.
"Why do my DV clients always want to dismiss their protection orders?" "If this abuser keeps saying they need their stuff from the victim's apartment, why do they have so many excuses for not picking it up at the agreed times?" "Why would anyone stay with an abusive partner?" If you work with victims of Intimate Partner Violence, you have probably heard questions like those and maybe even asked them yourself. IPV is a pattern of behaviors, not a singular event, and a failure to understand the intricacies of that pattern can lead to inappropriate responses by law enforcement, the courts, victim advocates, and other supportive outsiders. This "intensive introduction" is ideal for novice and veteran justice system personnel alike. Webinar attendees will be able to: - Better recognize and name abusive tactics for what they are and how they work. - Approach current victims of domestic violence with a deeper understanding and provide more effective support. - Access additional resources for more in-depth information on DV. - Understand how to better support friends and family experiencing DV.
