Flexible Foundations for Shelter Support and Beyond
2022-11-17 15:00 - 16:30 | Virtual
Between the pandemic, climate catastrophes, tensions about human rights, and high costs for basic needs, survivors’ service needs feel more complex than ever. Join the Action Alliance and Tori Wynecoop, Training and Technical Assistance Manager at the National Center on Domestic Violence Trauma and Mental Health (NCDVTMH), for three virtual trainings about collaborative and flexible approaches to address complex service needs. In this 3-part training for shelter staff and other front line advocates, participants will examine their expectations around crisis intervention; explore how to promote shared responsibility in shelter; and use the ‘stages of change’ model to support survivors’ goals.
This is the first in a three part training series. Attendees are encouraged to try and attend all three sessions.

The Intersection of Firearms and Intimate Partner Violence
2022-11-29 14:00 - 16:00 | Virtual
Did you know that 60% of intimate partner homicide victims are killed with firearms?
Join the Action Alliance as we present a training session on The Intersection of Firearms and Intimate Partner Violence. The Action Alliance will be presenting our Firearms Toolkit which is intended to provide you with a starting place. Attendees will leave this training with a better understanding on Virginia Law and Firearms Restrictions and will also be able to take back recommendations and best practices in working with survivors and your community.
The Action Alliance supports policies to remove firearms from potentially lethal situations and give law enforcement officers, prosecutors, and courts tools to protect victims, their families, and the broader community.
