Resolve Training Series

Creating Protective Communities Workshop

October 17th, 2024
12 pm - 2 pm

**This training is open to Principal Membership Only**

Description

So many of us want to prevent sexual violence for the youth we work with and don’t know how best to do so. Much of the time, prevention takes mo no re of an individual approach–what a child can do to deter abuse or respond to “grooming.” Research now shows that it is not only a child that is “groomed” for sexual abuse, but families, schools, and entire communities. Many professionals who work with youth have received training about how to handle a disclosure or how to recognize signs of abuse. This workshop uniquely focuses on community-level risk and protective factors and how to prevent child sexual abuse in our schools, families, and communities at large. This 90-minute to 2-hour workshop allows participants to reflect on the safety messages we receive and other factors that leave our children at risk. Participants will learn how to proactively and effectively prevent sexual violence in their communities by using a community-based approach to “grooming” and other tactics that perpetrators use, rather than an individual child approach.

For many of us, the term ‘conflict’ has a negative connotation.

From interpersonal dynamics to larger systemic change, engaging in conflict is a core component of how we make change–from our kitchen tables to the world stage.

Motivational Interviewing

Description

Motivational Interviewing (MI) Level 1 Motivational Interviewing is one of the most heavily researched interventions in the fields of addiction, behavioral health and medicine. Study after study has reliably demonstrated that implementing this practice with proficiency and consistency will improve outcomes for consumers of behavioral healthcare. MI is an approach that attempts to move an individual away from a state of indecision or uncertainty and towards finding motivation to making positive decisions and accomplishing established goals. MI as a directional, consumer-centered style of interacting with the goal of eliciting behavior change by helping individuals explore and resolve ambivalence. Rather than acting in an antagonistic or combative way, the helper engages with the consumer to explore his/her feelings - including ambivalence about changing - and help clients find their own motivations.

This workshop provides participants with an overview of the research and theoretical base for the model. Participants will also practice MI strategies and skills in small groups throughout the day. A working camera and microphone is required to register for this event.

Providing Safe Haven for Survivor’s Animals Through a Trauma-Informed Lens

Description

Domestic Violence shelters are energized to make housing more pet- inclusive, which is vital to ensuring pets and people stay together as they journey from temporary to permanent housing. This energy is warranted as the human-animal bond offers powerful emotional and physical benefits, and for those who have experienced the trauma of abuse, a bond with a pet can also play an important role in the healing process. The discussion will describe the advantages of pet-inclusive temporary housing and the massive gap between need and pet-inclusive housing availability. This session will also explore opportunities and challenges related to pet-inclusive efforts, using these insights to inform actions we can all take to accelerate the pet-inclusive housing movement.

Navigating the ODARA

(The Ontario Domestic Assault Risk Assessment)

Description

Please join us on Wednesday, December 6, 2023 at 11:00 am (2-hour meeting) to learn strategies to assist in conducting an ODARA assessment. At this meeting, we will hear from Johnnie Trujillo former Chief of Police Socorro Police Department and current Executive Director of El Puente del Socorro.

What is the ODARA?

The ODARA is an actuarial risk assessment that calculates how a man who has assaulted his female partner ranks among similar perpetrators with respect to risk. It also calculates the likelihood that he will assault a female partner again in the future. The 13 ODARA items include domestic and non- domestic criminal history, threats and confinement during the index incident, children in the relationship, substance abuse, and barriers to victim support. Each is scored 0,1, or "?" (Unknown).The ODARA Score is then adjust according to ODARA's Scale for "Yes-es" and "Unknowns"." this is considered the Offender's final "ODARA Score". score passed on a scale that credits unknowns. For example if you have a raw score of 4 (4 "Yes") and 2 unknows ("?") your ODARA scores jumps to a "5".

The ODARA is known to be valid when predicting violence in marriage or common-law relationships (including any period of cohabitation), or former relationships of this nature. It has been cross-validated in studies using police, probation, and criminal record files. The most direct application of the ODARA, then, is assessing the risk of domestic violence recidivism posed by a man who has come to the attention of police for assault against his wife, common-law wife, ex-wife, or ex-common-law wife, using criminal justice documentation. Another suitable application is advising a woman about the risk her current or former husband or common-law husband faces of coming into contact with the police again for an incident of wife assault.
