When victim service organizations collaborate with one another, each organization can expand its ability to serve victims more effectively. Successful collaborations take time, energy, and effort (and sometimes a lot of patience). The Developing and Sustaining Collaborations training will address how to identify when a collaboration is needed, how to choose potential partners and generate an action plan, and how to measure success.
The training is designed for managers who currently work in the victim services field.
It will be delivered online over the course of 4 weeks, beginning on January 20, 2020. Each week, except for the introductory week, will include a 75-minute facilitated webinar at 11:30am eastern time. In addition to attending the webinar, you can expect to spend an additional hour per week completing written assignments, readings, or watching videos. You will find the training schedule here. CEUs will be awarded for this training.
Please note: Space is limited, so apply early to reserve your spot.
Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM) evolved from the "Day of Unity" held in October 1981 and conceived by the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. The intent was to connect advocates across the nation who were working to end violence against women and their children. The Day of Unity soon became an entire week devoted to a range of activities conducted at the local, state, and national level. The activities conducted were as varied and diverse as the program sponsors but had common themes:
These three themes remain a key focus of DVAM events today. In October 1987, the first Domestic Violence Awareness Month was observed. That same year marks the initiation of the first national domestic violence toll-free hotline. In 1989, the U.S. Congress passed Public Law 101-112 designating October of that year as National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Such legislation has passed every year since with National Coalition Against Domestic Violence providing key leadership in this effort. Each year, the Day of Unity is celebrated the first Monday of Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
