This three hour webinar reviews “Home Visitation Guidelines on Domestic Violence”, a guide created by a Strong Families workgroup in partnership with the Arizona Coalition to End Sexual and Domestic Violence. These guidelines provide support to home visitors on dealing with domestic violence in the families with which they work. Topics will include defining domestic violence, starting the conversation about domestic violence, screening for domestic violence and responding to both positive and negative screenings, making referrals, mandated reporting, documentation, engaging men and fathers, and home visitor safety and self-care. All attendees will be provided with a hard copy of the guidelines and tools for home visitors to use in the home.
We believe that an effective public policy and advocacy program is driven by the voices of survivors and service providers. Contact the Coalition to request this informative and fun workshop and help create positive change for those whose lives have been impacted by domestic violence.
