Northern Integrated Family Violence Services invites you to a training session to strengthen your understanding of family violence.

This training is open to workers in the north who are not directly involved in specialist family violence service provision, but who may work with women who are experiencing family violence.

Through this half-day training, participants will increase their understanding and recognition of family violence. They will gain strategies to respond to disclosures and learn about appropriate referrals for women.

This training is useful not just for practitioners, but also for managers, HR and reception staff.

Due to high demand for this training, only two people per organisation can attend. If you would like to discuss fee-for-service in-house training, please contact adac@whin.org.au.

Visit the NIFVS website for further training dates.

Please note that by registering for this session, or the waiting list, you will be added to the NIFVS mailing list. This entitles you to receive our monthly e-news as well as notifications of future training and events.
