This is a training for providers who are interested in trauma-informed, evidence-based IPV intervention. You can be certified to deliver Strength at Home or just use the training to bolster your knowledge in this area. Information in the flyer below.
Hello all…I will be providing a webinar for the National Partnership to End Interpersonal Violence (NPEIV) on December 8th from 10am-Noon (PST). The cost is $25 and CE’s are available for additional cost. All proceeds go toward supporting the goals and activities of NPEIV.
The research-informed content will cover the important differences between women’s and men’s violence in intimate partner relationships; measuring changes in beliefs and behaviors in women’s abuse; and curriculum examples which illustrate gender-responsive, evidence-based interventions.

For nearly two years now, I have been fortunate to having conducted numerous interviews with some of the world’s most respected IPV researchers. These interviews are available for all ADVIP members for free as part of our podcast series.
I would love your feedback on these podcasts. Soon, I hope to make some of them available on iTunes and other platforms, and it would be good for marketing purposes if I could get some endorsements.
So, what are some of your favorites? Please share your thoughts with the rest of us!

The 24th International Summit on Violence, Abuse & Trauma is scheduled for September 5th through September 8th, at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in La Jolla, just outside San Diego. This is the largest annual IPV-related conference in the world, and well worth attending. I have presented there numerous times. In contrast to the International Family Violence & Child Victimization Conference, held every two years in New Hampshire, where our own ADVIP conference also meets and which is primarily attended by researchers, the San Diego conference is attended mostly by front-line practitioners, including BIPs and victim advocates.
Notice! Two ADVIP members, myself and Clare Cannon of U.C. Davis, will be presenting on Saturday, September 7, with preliminary results from our recent BIP survey, which includes information about our organization!

I was recently invited by the Association of British Social Workers to participate in a webinar on domestic violence prevention and treatment. We discussed a variety of topics of interest to ADVIP members. The approximately 90 minute webinar is now available for free to anyone who is interested.
