VAWnet Event Calendar

The National Human Trafficking Training and Technical Assistance Center will host a 90-minute webinar on emerging trends and case studies addressing economic mobility. The webinar will highlight survivor-informed models that organizations may implement on financial literacy and sustainable employment opportunities for people who have experienced trafficking.

NIWRC will facilitate this conversation to hear from Native women survivors of domestic and sexual violence and their advocates about what women need in the short and long term, and how can our grassroots organizing movement continue to change the culture of and prevent domestic violence.

This overview discussion will help put you on a path to answering these questions. With some key definitions explained plus small deep dives into cultural strategy case studies, viewers will be able to explore this ever-increasing strategy of how art can lead for social justice.

Peaceful Families Project (PFP) is profoundly grateful and excited to announce their intent to host the Annual National Imam/Chaplain Training (Insha’Allah) on September 24-26, 2021 projected to be in the Washington, D.C./Northern VA area.

This session will focus on best practices for protecting survivor information, obtaining informed consent, and responding to outside requests for survivor information. The New York State Coalition Against Domestic Violence’s policy team also will review New York State’s new DV advocate privilege law and how it should simplify DV advocates’ response from third parties for client information.

This is a joint training with the Battered Women's Justice Project (BWJP) and the federal Office of Child Support Enforcement. Presenters will discuss the basics of the federal child support system, and how each state, county, and tribe can differ in local practices, and the training on domestic violence that the federal office is providing to states and tribal child support agencies.
