Ready to go beyond the basics? Domestic Violence 201 sessions offer a deeper exploration of critical topics that go beyond what’s covered in DV101.

Join us as we take a closer look at the complexities of domestic violence and build our advocacy skills with deeper insights.

We will highlight emerging findings from NRCDV's ongoing Black immigrant and refugee housing research project. This project explores the scope of homelessness and housing insecurity among Black immigrant and refugee survivors of domestic and sexual violence and documents the experiences of advocates and direct service providers working with this population.

The Talk Story series explores critical issues related to advocacy for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking. Each webinar of the series aims to facilitate peer-to-peer learning amongst advocates on emerging issues impacting services to survivors. The April 10th, 2025 Talk Story webinar will explore how to support criminalized and incarcerated survivors in our advocacy work.

Surviving and recovering from financial abuse and harm takes time, patience, and a supportive community. In this webinar, we’ll explore the long-term effects of harm through the lens of our Survivor Journey model, offering context and understanding to help release feelings of shame or self-blame.
