Tile : Disrupting Institutional Systems Abuse Mapping Systemic Coercive Control

Systems abuse is a devastating tactic where perpetrators manipulate responders and institutional systems to harm and entrap victim-survivors .

While many conceptual models fail to account for these tactics, the reality is clear: systems and their actors are deliberately leveraged in the perpetrators abuse strategy and systems fail to mitigate this reality.

To avoid complicity in non-physical third-party violence requires that we understand how systems abuse operates and the mechanisms that enable it.

About This Workshop

This workshop is based on almost two decades of frontline family violence practice & on doctoral research (current) on Institutional Systems Abuse

What You'll Learn
