Join us for a comprehensive training, led by Maríluisa Diaz, Manager of Community Education & Outreach at CORA (Community Overcoming Relationship Abuse) on the dynamics of Domestic Violence (DV) and Intimate Partner Violence (IPV). This interactive session will delve into crucial topics such as DV statistics, family court restraining orders, red flags, barriers to leaving an abusive relationship, cultural humility, role-play scenarios, and supporting those experiencing IPV.
By attending this workshop, you will gain a deeper understanding of the intricate layers of stressors survivors face and develop skills to support them through a trauma-informed lens. We will also explore the emerging threat of tech-enabled abuse, shedding light on its various components and providing insights on how to navigate the ever-evolving world of technology.
