"The depth and breadth of this online training provides a substantial contribution to the work and provides an opportunity for people in various fields to be prepared to support survivors. We really appreciate the thoughtful approach in addressing the intersections between trauma, the complexity of domestic violence, the disparate impact on marginalized and oppressed communities and the importance of engaging in ways that remove barriers to services and resources. This course also supports the essential connections between community-based and social work practitioners that ultimately foster safety and healing for survivors."

Executive Director, Jane Doe Inc. (The Massachusetts Coalition Against Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence)
“This curriculum should be required learning for anyone in the helping professions. The inclusive focus on survivors as well as children and those who use abusive and controlling behavior resonates with the complexity of practice in a healthcare setting. Content on structural intersectionality, self-care and trauma-informed practice help to highlight the ways in which our work continues to grow. A much needed and valuable contribution to the field.”

“This training is a timely and welcome resource. The legal overview is particularly useful for clinicians who are not accustomed to navigating that system. Content on structural intersectionality, self-care and trauma-informed practice help to highlight the ways in which our work continues to grow. Excited to share this inter-professionally!”
