Serving Diverse Communities in Domestic Violence Investigations Training

Every Domestic Violence Investigation Is Different. Every Survivor Is Different.
 
In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, join us for a law enforcement training focused on responding to domestic violence in ways that recognize the diverse experiences, barriers, and safety needs of survivors.
 
Jennifer Waindle, Deputy Director of Battered Women’s Justice Project, and Aparna Bhattacharyya, Executive Director of Raksha, Inc., will provide practical insight into domestic violence dynamics, lethality risk, cultural considerations, language access, and immigration-related resources for victims.
 
Topics covered during this training include:
 
1) Overview of Domestic Violence Dynamics in Underserved Communities
2) Understanding Lethality Risk Factors
3) Predominant Aggressor Identification
4) Cultural Barriers and Differences Affecting Victims of Domestic Violence
5) Utilizing Appropriate Language Access Services
6) Immigration Relief for Victims including Spousal Abuse Waivers, U & T Visas
 
How we respond matters. It can build trust, increase safety, and save lives.
