LGBTIQA+ Family Violence Training - LAUNCESTON

This one-day training session is designed for family violence practitioners and other professionals who work with people of all genders and sexualities who experience intimate partner violence.

Engender Equality and Working It Out Tasmania have partnered to develop LGBTIQA+ Family Violence Practice Guidelines and this training package to support family violence workers deepen their practice with LGBTIQA+ victim/survivors of family violence. This training will cover:

• LGBTIQA+ fundamentals
• Understanding LGBTIQA+ family violence
• How the ‘gendered lens’ applies to LGBTIQA+ family violence
• Abuse types that are specific to LGBTIQA+ relationships
• Being affirmative and inclusive in your practice

This training is based on a firmly trans-inclusive feminist approach.

Tea, coffee and snacks will be provided. Please bring your own lunch.

Spaces are limited, please register now. If you have a large staff group (7+) who all wish to attend, please contact eugenie@engenderequality.org.au to discuss the possibility of in-house training.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of this land and pay our respects to Elders past and present. This land was, is, and always will be, Aboriginal land. Sovereignty was never ceded.

Thanks to the Tasmanian Government for supporting this project.
