Domestic Violence can impact a survivor’s sense of physical and emotional safety, their overall health, their capacity to function in daily life, as well as their ability to successfully navigate the available support systems and resources that can help them. In this webinar we define and explore the impacts of intimate partner violence (IPV) and the lasting effects of individual, historical, and collective trauma. The session 1 discussion will include information about how IPV specifically impacts mental health, substance use, parenting, and community connection.
Registrants who fully attend this event or training will receive a certificate of attendance via email within two weeks after the event or training.
