Towards a Long Term View of Risk: Moving Your CCR Beyond an Incident Based Response

Event Type
Event Date
Tuesday, July 25, 2017, 12:00PM
- Thursday, July 27, 2017

Survivors face various types of risk: the risks posed by the abuser and coercive control in the home, the risk posed by the victim’s life experiences, and the risks that are posed by system interventions. Life and system-generated risks, which victims themselves identify, particularly endanger victims from marginalized communities. Way too often, risk and danger concerns focus only on the risk posed by the abuser and some practitioners are comfortable with system responses that zero in only on the incident resulting in system intervention. This conference will engage participants involved in coordinated community responses across criminal legal systems to move beyond incident-based responses to recognize and account for long-term risks.

Objectives

As a result of this conference, participants will be better able to:

  • Identify the centrality of coercive control in abusive intimate partner relationships.
  • Distinguish between life-generated, system-generated, and batterer-generated risks.
  • Centralize the experience of marginalized communities in the work of the coordinated community response (CCR).
  • Describe the utility of gathering historical information about coercive control throughout legal system interventions.
  • Explore promising practices for law enforcement, prosecutors, and advocates in the context of a CCR.
  • Develop creative responses for marginalized survivors.
  • Promote the use of victim narratives to obtain a detailed view of risk and danger from varied perspectives.
  • Discover how the post-adjudication response can promote continued safety for victims and accountability for offenders.
