VAWnet Event Calendar

Join RedRover and Greater Good Charities for a FREE one-day training workshop where presenters will discuss the link between human and animal violence and explore ways to create and sustain pet housing programs for people and pets in crisis.

This webinar will discuss how law enforcement and prosecutors can work together to prosecute offender-focused criminal cases that keep the attention of the court and the jury on the offender and how the offender targeted a vulnerable victim due to immigrant status and limited English proficiency.

Victims’ actual experiences of gender-based violence and exploitation do not align with standard psychological and legal assessments of such dynamics. In this talk, faculty will suggest solutions to effectively narrow this gap by using the most recent scientific advances on our understanding of abuse and exploitation assessments.

The Safety Net Project at the National Network to End Domestic Violence is excited to announce a webinar on encryption and what it means for victim service providers and survivor safety. Presenters will focus on the basics of encryption for service providers and its importance in ensuring confidential and secure communications and data management.

This training will provide law enforcement, prosecutors, and system-based advocates with information on the U and T visa programs, including how these programs enhance victim and community safety by increasing victim participation in the criminal justice process and ultimately holding offenders accountable.
