Compassionate Responses
Description
This workshop is for anyone wondering what to do when someone discloses that they have experienced violence, abuse or harm. We will cover topics such as: knowing when you need to mandatorily report, practice supporting an individual during a disclosure, and creating a self-care plan after a disclosure.
Together we will go over these topics, answer questions, and gain skills to reduce further harm during disclosures. After this workshop you should feel better equipped to navigate disclosures of harm, have a clearer understanding of your role as a mandatory reporter, and how to refer survivors to an advocate.
