Addressing it with an Anti-Racism Lens (3 CE Credits - Cultural Competence)
Sexual Violence is often narrowly examined as an issue solely centering gender and violence. For BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of color) survivors, sexual violence has historically served as a tool to facilitate racism and other forms of oppression. This training will examine the intersection of sexual violence & racism. Participants will be provided with the critical tools for implementing anti-racism sexual violence intervention and prevention services specific to the needs of communities of color.
