One-Day Workshop: FDV-informed Documentation and Language

When working with survivors (adult and child) or users of violence, it is essential to use language that reflects a survivor, strength-based approach, a perpetrator-facing, and a perpetrator-driven risk approach. This ensures behaviour patterns are prominent and visible, survivor resistance and strengths are at the forefront of responses and, service responses are better able to assess risk and imminency to risk. Accordingly, in domestic and family violence work, our language should focus on perpetrator accountability and a behaviour pattern-based approach. This workshop has been developed to align with the internally accredited Safe and Together model.

This one-day workshop will provide further skills and knowledge of best practice when capturing documentation in family domestic and sexual abuse matters.
