Course Description: On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. Intimate partner violence, (IPV) is an increasing threat of the COVID19 pandemic’s ‘shelter in place’ orders. In some states, IPV reporting are 35% higher than usual speaking to a variety of isolation related issues and risks. Providers will benefit from understanding the dynamics of IPV and how to support victimized LGBTQ and persons of color inclusive of safety planning and self-care options.
This interactive two-part webinar (90 minutes each), is designed to inform on how to recognize IPV behavior and cycles of abuse, confinement related stress, and how historical trauma may influence victimization responses in minority groups. Content will focus on impact of IPV within African American, Hispanic and Latinx, and LGBTQA communities using culturally sensitive and trauma informed strategies especially important during the current pandemic.
