Event Details
Case managers and other staff working in homeless/housing programs are keenly aware that domestic violence is a factor in many of the households they serve, and that sometimes they must respond, intervene, and offer resources. This training is designed to respond to requests we heard during the Kick-Off meeting for tools and information for homeless/housing program staff. Featuring speakers from the community’s own DV programs and the Ohio DV Network, topics include state and local resources, DV dynamics, how a survivor’s risk analysis factors into decisions about staying or separating, and how staff can navigate their responsibilities to both members of the household with increased safety as the goal. Presenters will also offer tips on partnering with DV advocates and agencies and invite discussion about how collaboration between the two provider sectors can be enhanced.
