In addition, the helper needs to understand his or her role and how to best engage with both the victim and the community surrounding her. This webinar will focus on practical ways to create safety and provide a plan of care to victims of current abuse.

Participants will learn:
How to compassionately receive the story of a current victim of abuse
How and when to involve law enforcement and/or Child Protective Services
How to design a plan of care for the victim and her dependents
How to engage with the church in surrounding a victim of abuse
