Free Domestic Violence Intervention Training Workshop

The Family Resource Centre is holding a three-day Domestic Violence Intervention Training Programme scheduled for November 27-30

Suitable for front-line professionals or those wanting to learn more about the dynamics of abusive relations and how to help, the certificate course will take place at the George Town Public Library from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The workshop covers domestic violence from a broad spectrum and aims to help participants understand the manifestations of and responses to such abuse, the Family Resource Centre said in a press release.

It will also look at related laws.

To add practical, real life expertise, the Centre says the course will involve presentations from agencies including the Family Support Unit; the Cayman Islands Crisis Centre; the Department of Children and Family Services; and the Director of Public Prosecutions, which will highlight the work they do with victims and perpetrators.
