Training course: Supporting Survivors Resilience, Moving Beyond and Through Experiences of Sexual Violence.
Training dates: June 3rd & 4th 2014 (also on December 9th & 10th 2014)
Aim: This FREE two day accredited course aims to build on practitioners existing skills and knowledge, following best practice protocols for effective engagement to support women’s recovery from sexual violence.
About this course: This course will use theoretical constructs from gender analysis perspectives on sexual violence, to examine prevalence, definitions, challenge popularist attitudes and views towards sexual violence from a trauma focused approach. This will involve the exploration of neurobiology of trauma responses to contextualise the range, depth and trauma symptomology and the ensuing legacy of sexual violence. The course will also introduce strength and evidence based approaches to working holistically, with women who have experienced sexual violence, from a culturally relevant perspective. The programme will also include specialist information from ROW on legal frameworks in sexual violence and presentations from CEOP covering new technologies in sexual violence.
