Join the Northwest Network in this practical exploration of survivor centered advocacy to increase the self-determination of survivors of sexual violence

This webinar will discuss highlights and lessons learned from the NW Network's unique, strengths-based sexual assault support group, Thriving While Healing: Finding Joy, Resilience and Support in the Aftermath of Sexual Assault.

Each year, this action-oriented conference brings together 120+ survivors, advocates, and victim service providers to connect, share information, and engage in critical thinking analysis about efforts needed to address and prevent intimate partner violence, family violence, sexual violence, dating violence, and/or stalking. 

Support group is one of the most versatile tools that we have in our advocacy program toolkit. When facilitators are equipped to build equity into their facilitation and respond openly and effectively to the challenges of diverse groups, support group can be available to more survivors, more of the time.

Part 3 in a 3-part series on “Assessing Patterns of Coercive Control in Abusive Relationships,” this session continues to offer opportunities to engage in skill building and practice with the Northwest Network’s assessment tool.
