The Network

This training provides a trauma-informed framework to front line workers (med students) to help deepen their understanding of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and human trafficking, and explore their intersections. Participants will understand how these forms of violence often overlap and learn about survivor-centered and anti-oppressive strategies for an effective response to gender-based violence. We will review scenarios specific to the street medicine context and TA is available in ongoing collaboration between agencies to best prepare responders for the street medicine context.

This is a free, 2-hour group training, available virtually or in person, in Spanish or English, and offering 2 Social Work CEUs. This opportunity also includes 6 months of free, ongoing technical assistance. It is open to all front-line staff across sectors that are members of an organization. Organization must be based in or serve clients in the city of Chicago.
