SUMMARY:Gender-Based Violence Housing and Homelessness Collaborative: An In-Person Event!
DESCRIPTION:Co-hosted by the Coalition Ending Gender-Based Violence (CEGV)\, King County Regional Homelessness Authority (KCRHA)\, and City of Seattle Human Services Department (HSD). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYWCA Phillis Wheatley Branch \n\n\n\n2820 E Cherry St Seattle 98122 \n\n\n\nJoin us for an afternoon of building relationships across homeless housing and gender-based violence systems!  \n\n\n\nHousing System navigators\, advocates\, and case managers are encouraged to attend! \n\n\n\nThis is the first in-person meeting for this newly formed group that aims to build relationships\, share resources\, and ultimately make recommendations to better meet the needs of survivors who are homeless and/or experiencing housing instability.  \n\n\n\n\n\nWhat will we be doing?\n\n\n\nWe will be conducting a Journey Mapping exercise: mapping the experiences of survivors as they navigate our specific systems and programs. Come prepared with 2-3 client scenarios that exemplify your agency’s sub-population expertise and convey the paths your clients navigate. \n\n\n\n\n\nBreakout groups will be by sub-population: you will work alongside other agency participants who serve the same GBV sub-population (i.e. Trans/Two Spirit\, Commercial Sexual Exploitation\, Families etc.).  You can best prepare for this by calling to mind 2-3 client scenarios which you feel exemplify both a.) your agency’s sub-population expertise and b.) will best convey the journey of clients within your area of expertise. \n\n\n\nWhy Journey Mapping? \n\n\n\nJourney mapping is an exercise that helps us to visualize a client’s journey through homelessness. This communal mapping process will help us to capture the many threads of GBV Homelessness response system that contributes to its overall landscape and current state. Journey Mapping serves to highlight critical intersections\, gaps as well as opportunities for capacity building.  \n\n\n\nWhat is our goal? \n\n\n\nOur aim is to leave this gathering with a clearer understanding of the many different identities and situations of which survivors enter homelessness\, are cycled through and/or bridged out of homelessness\, so that\, we may strengthen our coalition’s work to improve its overall functioning and health. We all know that there is a malnourished\, complex web of services that survivors must interact with\, and that the threads of this web must be better understood\, coordinated and invested in. Our goal as a GBV-Homelessness Collaborative\, is to help inform our government agencies\, so that they can not only plan better but also invest better. This exercise will direct us all as to how to move towards improved collaboration across systems\, future-state visioning and advocacy.  \n\n\n\nThis meeting is open to CEGV membership organizations\, homeless housing providers\, and other providers from adjacent systems interested in this intersection.

SUMMARY:BIPOC Preventionists Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Calling all Black\, Native/Indigenous\, and POC Prevention workers! CEGV wants to invite you to a day of rest\, rejuvenation\, and relationship building! \n\n\n\nWithin the framework of Black-Abolitionist Feminism\, our Prevention work is constantly straddling the long work of opposing systemic harm with the immediate and ongoing work of interrupting violence now! We know that vicarious trauma can greatly impact our ability to make decisions that are in alignment with our values of transforming patriarchal cultures\, and that\, “caring for myself is not self-indulgence\, it is self-preservation and that is an act of political warfare.” – Audre Lorde \n\n\n\nOn November 8th at the Phyllis Wheatley YWCA\, we’ll be gathering for a day to FEEEEL rested and rejuvenated\, and relationshiped! This is a day for us to combat the collective vicarious traumas we experience from our struggles against patriarchy as we practice three things… \n\n\n\n\nRest – “an instance or period of relaxing or ceasing to engage in strenuous or stressful activity.”\n\n\n\nRejuvenation – “the action or process of giving new energy or vigor to something.”\n\n\n\nRelationship Building – in this context\, “power building.”\n\n\n\n\nSo\, wear something comfortable and come get your nervous system regulated with us! \n\n\n\nContact Paris Chapman for any questions – Paris@endgv.org

SUMMARY:March Skills Lab with Dr. Leticia Nieto: Adding Tools To Your Advocacy Toolkit
DESCRIPTION:CEGV is teaming up with Dr. Leticia Nieto for a multi-part series to add tools to your toolkit to handle the myriad challenges and complexities of advocacy.  \n\n\n\nOur work in the gender-based violence movement is full of nuance and complexity. The daily challenges and joys are set against a backdrop of systems of oppression and intersect in countless ways with other social justice issues. In short\, this work is not easy. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a series of interactive workshops with Dr. Leticia Nieto to find ways to better support yourself as advocate and in turn\, deepen your advocacy skills to better support survivors. Together we will explore these questions: \n\n\n\n\nHow can we better incorporate an anti-oppression lens in our advocacy practices?\n\n\n\nWhat are the ways to promote healing and liberation within our team and organizations?\n\n\n\n\nDr. Nieto is internationally recognized for her expertise addressing social justice concerns from a developmental ecological perspective including orienting to systemic transformation\, survivance\, song and poetry\, relational repair\, joy\, radical rest\, intersectional coalition\, and reparative and restorative justice. Dr. Nieto brings an enlivening approach to coaching\, training and facilitation\, drawing on expressive techniques and embodied practices to involve participants deeply and create opportunities for insight and change. Since 1980 she has successfully brought her skills to higher education and other learning communities (including three decades teaching in a graduate program in counseling)\, to service providers in helping agencies\, to workplace teams\, and to many community groups. \n\n\n\nIn this Skills Lab\, Dr. Nieto will offer practical tools and strategies for working with specific situations that present challenges in our work. They will be strengths-based\, action-oriented practice sessions based on Dr. Nieto’s book Beyond Inclusion\, Beyond Empowerment. \n\n\n\nObjectives \n\n\n\n\nParticipants will practice one strengths-based strategy in response to a real-life situation.\n\n\n\nParticipants will demonstrate the ability to analyze incidents at the behavioral\, systemic\, and transpersonal levels.\n\n\n\n\nContact Nykki Canete nykki@endgv.org or Lea Aromin lea@endgv.org for questions about the training and for accommodations.  \n\n\n\nCEUs available.

SUMMARY:Value Aligned Collaborative Supervision through Appreciative Inquiry 2025
DESCRIPTION:As we strive to create anti-racist value-aligned organizations\, supervision and supervisory relationships are a vital site of change. These relationships are at the core of most of our organizations and structure how we work together. In this training\, participants will learn a powerful new approach to supervision using an Appreciative Inquiry framework based in motivational research\, behavioral science\, and anti-racist anti-oppression values. This practice is relational and fosters collaboration\, innovation\, and creativity. Traditional management principles have an ugly and dehumanizing history that position the supervisor as the knower and the one most morally invested in the work being completed. Many performance management strategies still currently used by non-profits today are based in this frame. \n\n\n\nWhat: This Appreciative Inquiry Based model developed by Quantum Possibilities positions both supervisor and supervisee as knowers as it outlines a pathway for both to co-create a shared vision of success and co-design a plan to bring that vision into reality. Appreciative Inquiry is an inspiring\, growth-promoting\, and transformational philosophical and practical approach to frame\, take inventory\, envision\, plan\, and pursue meaningful change by building on past moments of joy\, connection\, and success. Understanding that change begins at the point of asking a question\, this model teaches supervisors to ask strategic questions that build meaningful relationships and catalyze connection to the work. A shared commitment to excellence that becomes foundational to building actionable plans focused on what matters most in the direction of fulfilling the organization’s mission. \n\n\n\nIn this training\, participants will:  \n\n\n\n\nLearn to apply a racial equity framework to supervision and create opportunities for power-with rather than power-over to foster collaboration.\n\n\n\n​Understand the role of collaboration in cultivating excellence\, preventing burnout and secondary trauma\, interrupting oppressions in the workplace.\n\n\n\nDevelop skills in applying psychological research on learning\, positive emotions and motivation to supervision practices.\n\n\n\nDevelop skills to foster authenticity and vulnerability that facilitate generative supervisory relationships.\n\n\n\nLearn the four elements of an Appreciative Inquiry approach to supervision and how to implement them.\n\n\n\n\nWho: This training is for staff at all levels across the Coalition’s membership: advocates\, managers\, directors\, volunteers\, but may be particulary relevant for those in formal leadership roles or those who want to be in formal leadership roles. Accommodation requests: If you have any accommodation requests\, please let us know no later than March 10th. \n\n\n\nAbout the Trainer: Martha Ramos Duffer\, Psy.D. is a licensed psychologist\, speaker\, trainer\, and consultant born in Mexico City\, raised in Puerto Rico\, and currently based in Austin\, Texas. She is the owner and founder of Quantum Possibilities\, which provides a broad array of consulting\, training\, coaching and therapeutic services focused on liberation in the forms of healing and growth for individuals\, healthy relationships\, and transformational organizational systems and cultures for organizations committed to anti-racist and anti-oppressive practice. \n\n\n\nCEUs available. For more information\, please contact Lea Aromin lea@endgv.org

SUMMARY:Supporting Trans Survivors of Gender-Based Violence Training Series: Session 2
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to better support trans survivors in our communities through the Training Series: Supporting Trans Survivors of Gender-Based Violence. This is the first of three sessions in this series. \n\n\n\nThis series provides an overview of gender-based violence (GBV) in Two-Spirit\, Trans\, and Gender Diverse communities\, highlighting the scale of the issue through statistics\, research\, and the intersections of race\, class\, disability\, and neurodiversity. It explores the concept of trans misogyny\, including its role in the current political climate and the impact of widespread anti-trans misinformation\, while also equipping participants with foundational Trans 101 language and tools for continued learning. By the end of the training\, participants will understand the risk factors and barriers trans survivors face\, define trans misogyny within the GBV movement\, and feel more confident in implementing best practices to support Two-Spirit\, Trans\, and Gender Diverse survivors. \n\n\n\nSession 2: \n\n\n\nLearning Objectives: \n\n\n\n\nUnderstand the structural and cultural issues that contribute to IPV for trans people.\n\n\n\nBe able to identify the issues that impact Trans IPV survivors in marginalized communities such as immigration status\, disability & neurodivergence\, Two-Spirit and native communities.\n\n\n\nBe able to articulate the reasons Trans IPV survivors do and don’t seek services\, and ways to restructure & communicate a welcoming environment for Two-Spirit\, trans\, and gender diverse survivors.\n\n\n\nUnderstand the current legal protections for Two-Spirit\, Trans\, and Gender Diverse people in Local\, State\, and Federal Law.\n\n\n\nUnderstand Trans IPC specific screening tools\, safety planning tools\, and educational tools for working with Two-Spirit\, Trans\, and Gender-Diverse Survivors.\n\n\n\n\nSummary: This training provides an overview of gender-based violence (GBV) in Two-Spirit\, Trans\, and Gender Diverse communities\, exploring tools for advocacy\, structural and systems reasons survivors don’t seek support\, and legal protections. It explores an in-depth analysis of the sociocultural framework of Intimate Partner Violence and how it fails to incorporate transgender survivors. With specific context around advocacy with Two Spirit and immigrant transgender survivors\, participants will be exposed to an intersectional understanding of transgender IPV. By challenging the traditional frameworks of IPV service provision and exploring the barriers and challenges transgender survivors face in seeking service\, participants will walk away with a deeper understanding of the types of changes they can implement in their day to day advocacy as well as on an organizational level. \n\n\n\nOutcomes: This training will go beyond the basics\, we will delve deeper into the distinct issues that includes interpersonal and intimate partner violence for Two-Spirit\, Trans\, and Gender Diverse people. The training will look at the cultural and structural barriers that contribute to IPV for trans communities\, including increased lethality. We will also review barriers to services\, how to overcome those barriers\, and creating a welcoming environment for Two-Spirit\, Trans\, and Gender Diverse Survivors. We will also go over local\, state and federal laws protecting these populations so that advocates can support 2STGD survivors who experience discrimination. Finally\, we will ensure that attendees understand trans specific screening tools\, safety planning\, and available training materials for colleagues.

SUMMARY:August Skills Workshop w/ Dr. Leticia Nieto

The daily challenges and joys are set against a backdrop of systems of oppression and intersect in countless ways with other social justice issues. In short\, this work is not easy. \n\n\n\nJoin us for series of workshops with Dr. Leticia Nieto to find ways to better support yourself as advocate and in turn\, deepen your advocacy skills to better support survivors.

SUMMARY:More Than You Can Handle: How Religion Can Be Used in Intimate Partner Violence
DESCRIPTION:Many Christians have heard the saying\, “God won’t give you more than you can handle.” This is often said to those who are experiencing hardships\, trials\, and tribulations. This line comes from a verse in the Bible (1 Corinthians 10:13)\, but it is not talking about hard things in life\, but rather temptations. As a result of this misinterpretation\, it has been used to victim blame people who are experiencing harm. Implying that the abuse comes from God\, and that\, if one’s faith is “strong enough\,” they can handle it on their own. We will not be arguing the merits of faith\, or the value of religion\, but rather looking at how Religious Trauma shows up in people’s relationships\, bodies\, and lives at large.  \n\n\n\nThis training will look at how scripture\, religious traditions\, and cultural norms are used to assert power and control in intimate relationships. How someone’s faith can be weaponized against them to cause harm. We will also explore the specific impacts on LGBTQ+ individuals in\, and from religious communities. Coming away from this training you feel more comfortable working with both your religious clients and those who have left their faith communities.  \n\n\n\nObjectives:  \n\n\n\n1. Breakdown the cycle of abuse in religious/spiritual contexts  \n\n\n\n2. Understand Religious Trauma and explore what it looks like in the nervous system  \n\n\n\n3. Recognize ways to support religious clients experiencing intimate partner violence  \n\n\n\n4. Identify special considerations for LGBTQ+ clients  \n\n\n\nTrainer Bio: Lindley King (they/them) is a Licensed Mental Health Therapist\, consultant\, and trainer in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle. They have strived to bring healing in the field of gender-based violence since 2011\, holding multiple roles including shelter advocate\, crisis line advocate\, and therapist. They are currently in private practice serving adult survivors of gender-based violence and multi-abuse trauma. Their specialties include religious and spiritual trauma\, LGTBQ+ issues\, and gender identity. Lindley works from a harm reduction model and social justice framework. They believe in a holistic approach\, recognizing that trauma comes from experiencing injustice and inequality and that we must not remain neutral in the face of harm. \n\n\n\nDates: This will be a two-part training from 10am – noon on September 4th and 5th. \n\n\n\nLOCATION: Via Zoom – link will be sent to registrants the day before. \n\n\n\nIf you’re interested in becoming a member and/or attending this training\, please contact me directly at Paris@endgv.org

SUMMARY:You Want Me To What??? Considerations for When Family Court Enters the Therapy Room.
DESCRIPTION:More and more therapists are being asked to provide information or services specifically for family law purposes – especially when there are cross allegations of domestic violence and mental health concerns. \n\n\n\nAttorneys\, evaluators\, and/or the courts want to know what’s going on in therapy\, what someone said or didn’t say\, and how that impacts their current situation. Clients may or may not want you to provide information. You might believe your notes or opinions could help your client or conversely\, you might fear they could make things worse! So what do you do? \n\n\n\nJoin Fran Schopick and Tracee Parker for an overview of Family Court and how it can create very challenging dilemmas for mental health practitioners. We’ll explore the risks\, benefits\, and options that may be available to you and possible impacts on the care you provide. We will also review State laws\, agency rules\, documentation\, and potential threats to confidentiality to help you thoughtfully and confidently respond to court-related requests.  \n\n\n\nThis training is intended for mental health professionals\, including supervisors in the mental health field but could also be useful to domestic violence advocates who are supporting survivors through family court cases. \n\n\n\nLearning Objectives:As a result of this workshop\, participants will: \n\n\n\n\nUnderstand common Family Court terminology and the roles of various court-related professionals.\n\n\n\nHave increased knowledge of how Family Court can impact therapy.\n\n\n\nBe able to develop a thoughtful response to court-related requests from clients and others.\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Presenters: \n\n\n\nFrances Schopick\, JD\, MSW is an attorney with an extensive background in clinical Social Work and psychiatric research.

SUMMARY:Transformative Justice and Intimate Partner Violence w/ Shannon Perez-Darby
DESCRIPTION:In the words of Shannon Perez Darby\, “Transformative justice has been a valuable tool for addressing violence outside of harmful state-based systems. As our movements have grown we’ve seen community members turn towards transformative justice practices to address the range of violence our communities experience. When faced with questions of domestic and sexual violence many community members can feel overwhelmed.This workshop is designed to support community members in building skills to better understand intimate partner violence (IPV) and explore the possibilities and pitfalls of transformative justice practices in addressing IPV. We will discuss how transformative justice practices can support people surviving abuse\, people being abusive and the communities who love them.” \n\n\n\nLOCATION: Via Zoom – link will be sent to registrants the day before. \n\n\n\nThis event is open to CEGV Membership\, advocates\, and community organizers. If you’re interested or know anyone interested in becoming a member and/or attending this training\, please contact me directly at Paris@endgv.org \n\n\n\n
