Diversity Dialogues, Unpacking Family Violence and Disability - Caring roles in Family Violence

REGISTRATIONS CLOSE 3RD DECEMBER 2024 10:00AM

This session is part of an ongoing monthly series to serve the Loddon region, hosted by the Family Violence Disability Practice Leader at Centre for Non Violence. 

This 1.5 hour Professional Development will be looking at how caring roles can be weaponised in the context of family violence. We'll be highlighting how our ableist systems gives rise to violence against women and girls with disabilities and how we can better understand these structures to become more curious about caring roles.

What will you learn from this session

• Guardianship & Administration 
  
• How a PUV presents as a carer
• How to respond to a PUV being a carer
  
• Types of carers – rights/responsibilities
  
• Supporting a victim survivor who is a carer to a PUV
• Best Practice – Navigating guardianship/administration & decision making

There will be an opportunity for you to submit questions to be included in the Q&A session at the conclusion of the presentation. These questions will be kept anonymous and a written response to questions will be provided to attendees once the recording is sent out.

Please note, the session will be recorded and disseminated across the Loddon region. Attendees video's will not be visible in the recording and the Q&A session will not be recorded.
