This training conference is intended for members of domestic violence teams who are recipients of the Improving Criminal Justice Responses to Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, Dating Violence and Stalking (ICJR-formerly GTEAP, "Arrest") grant and Rural Grant Grantees, including police officers, dispatchers, victim advocates, probation officers, prosecutors, batterer intervention program staff, and child welfare workers. The teaching objectives are to give participants up-to-date information and perspective about risk markers for domestic homicides and serious assaults, and to help identify more comprehensive and safe practices for assessing danger, protecting victims, and monitoring batterers.
Each participant will receive a training packet of danger assessment tools and guidelines, as well as an interactive training DVD entitled, Domestic Violence Danger Assessment and Safety Planning, produced by EMERGE with funding from the U.S. Department of Justice.
