Working with Perpetrators of Sexual Violence Living with Disabilities: Understanding Bias in an Affirmative Disability Counselling Space (November 2026)

This interactive webinar provides practitioners with a critical, disability-affirming framework for working with perpetrators of sexual violence living with disabilities. Participants will explore the Affirmative Model of Disability, Australian sexual violence legislation, current research and statistics, and engage in reflective practice to recognise bias and apply ethical, inclusive counselling approaches that promote accountability and safety.

This course is designed for counsellors, psychologists, social workers, disability support professionals, behaviour support practitioners, and allied health workers who work with people with disabilities, particularly those involved in responding to or managing sexual violence, harmful sexual behaviours, or forensic and safeguarding contexts.

Access details will be sent to attendees closer to the webinar date.
