VAWnet Event Calendar

Panelists will discuss community-building, advocacy, and healing in the aftermath of incarceration.

Join the National Resource Center on Domestic Violence (NRCDV) for its webinar on Tuesday, September 15 at 2 PM ET.

Law enforcement investigating cases involving adult victims of sexual assault with intellectual disabilities often feel unprepared to conduct an effective interview. They may not necessarily know how to ask the appropriate questions, how to interact with a support person, or how to work with someone who uses alternative communication.  As a result, adult victims with intellectual disabilities are either not being interviewed at all or being sent to individuals trained in interviewing children.

How can professionals help people who are abusive in their relationships? Attend this webinar to learn why this matters, what abusive partner intervention programs do, and about a new toolkit for professionals with recommendations on how to work with abusive partners. Hear from professionals working directly in abusive partner intervention programs in Philadelphia. The Shared Safety Lunch & Learn webinar series is meant to equip health and human services professionals with resources and knowledge to help identify and respond to relational violence with their clients.

Panelists will discuss community-building, advocacy, and healing in the aftermath of incarceration.

Futures Without Violence (FUTURES) is hosting a virtual conversation that centers coaches, campus leaders/organizers, and online community moderators — on how we shape everyday spaces for boys and young men that they already inhabit into places of safety, honesty, and growth.
