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. She served on the Psychiatry Faculties at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in NYC and Harvard Medical School in Boston\, MA to research the underlying contributors seen in people with mood\, personality\, and psychotic disorders. She worked clinically with perpetrators as well as survivors of domestic violence and coercive control. Her experience has given her insights into the dynamics of high conflict families as well as the complex and nuanced challenges posed to the counselors who work with them.Now an attorney in WA State\, Fran represents health care providers undergoing Board investigations. To help licensees avoid such complaints\, Fran develops Disclosure and Informed Consent resources tailored to individual practice\, so that providers can simultaneously minimize counselor risk and maximize client care. Fran provides legal consultation to agencies\, counselors\, and other healthcare providers working with individual adults\, children\, couples\, and families\, often in “high conflict” situations. Fran speaks nationally on the importance of well-administered Informed Consent as well as the many factors that can affect clinical care. \n\n\n\nTracee Parker\, Psy.D. is the Justice for Families Project Manager at the Coalition Ending Gender-Based Violence\, where she has co-authored (with Dr. Anne Ganley) Intimate Partner Violence Impact Assessment – A process for collecting\, analyzing\, and presenting information. Her background includes domestic violence advocacy\, supervised visitation for domestic violence cases\, domestic violence perpetrator treatment\, training and consultation\, mediation\, nonviolent conflict resolution training\, and expert testimony. Her doctoral research focus was post-separation battering via access to children and working with men who batter. Dr. Parker is also adjunct faculty at Seattle University in the Social Work Department where she teaches a 10-week course entitled\, Domestic Violence in the U.S. \n\n\n\nEarn 2 Ethics CEUs from WA State Society for Clinical Social Work \n\n\n\nFor questions and accommodations requests\, reach out to Nykki nykki@endgv.org

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.

SUMMARY:Seattle Book Launch "How to End Family Policing: From Outrage to Action"
DESCRIPTION:In a study titled\, “There’s No One I Can Trust”\, 50% of domestic violence survivors with direct experience of mandated reports said the mandated report made things much worse. Only 3% stated it made things much better. Additionally\, over 1 in 3 survivors stated they have not asked for help for fear of mandated reporting. \n\n\n\nWe must take seriously the harms of mandatory reporting practices on survivors\, especially those most impacted such as youth\, BIPOC\, and LGBTQ+ survivors. Our collective work requires upholding survivor self-determination.  \n\n\n\nWe are honored to be a sponsor of the upcoming book launch of How to End Family Policing: From Outrage to Action (Haymarket). Join us as we hear from authors Shannon Perez-Darby and Shawn Koyano\, along with community organizers Såhi Velasco and Sully Sullivan\, for an evening of reading\, conversation\, and engagement!  \n\n\n\nCopies of the book will be available to purchase at the event. For questions about the book contact Shannon@accountablecommunities.com \n\n\n\nThe library can provide accommodations for people with disabilities at library events. Please contact LEAP at least seven days before the event to request accommodations. \n\n\n\nNote-The library closes at 6:00 p.m. It will reopen at 6:15 pm for the event. Seating is first come\, first served for registered participants. All Library programs are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Prevention Through Advocacy: Integrating Movement History\, Prevention Theory\, and Practice into Advocate Training
DESCRIPTION:Prevention Through Advocacy is a two-part workshop that supports sexual and domestic violence organizations in rethinking advocate training as a place for violence prevention and movement building in addition to survivor advocacy.In this training\, participants will explore how the advocacy training model has been shaped by professionalization and funding structures\, including the costs and benefits of standardized training that is integrated with medical\, legal\, law enforcement\, social service\, and community systems. \n\n\n\nBoth sessions will be from 10am to Noon via zoom – part one on Thursday\, March 5th\, and part two on Thursday\, March 12th. \n\n\n\nPart 1 will look closely at the tensions this history creates for survivor-centered\, community-driven\, and intersectional work. You will situate your own training practices within the broader movement to end gender-based violence. Through a case study\, participants will explore how professionalization and funding pressures can narrow the scope of advocacy\, pulling organizations away from intersectional\, community-rooted efforts to end violence and toward managing harm within existing systems. Participants will examine how advocate training can invite people into the movement rather than frame the role as limited to a volunteer or job function. \n\n\n\nPart 2 will shift to concrete strategies for designing and facilitating movement-aligned advocate training that builds community\, shared purpose\, and solidarity among advocates and staff. It concludes with guided reflection and planning to identify specific\, realistic changes participants can make to better integrate prevention theory and movement grounding into their training programs. \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.

SUMMARY:Under Oath: Responding to Requests for Testimony
DESCRIPTION:Via Zoom \n\n\n\nTherapists are frequently asked to provide testimony about their services and opinions regarding individuals\, couples\, children\, and families with whom they have worked. Attorneys\, evaluators\, and/or the courts want to know if therapy was effective\, if there were signs of domestic violence\, what were the diagnoses\, and other salient factors. \n\n\n\nClients may or may not want you to testify. You may or may not want to testify. Whether or not you choose to provide testimony\, there is almost certainly an impact on the therapeutic relationship. Join Fran Schopick and Tracee Parker to explore the types of testimony that therapists might be asked to provide\, the implications of providing testimony\, and the basic skills of testifying when required. \n\n\n\nAs a result of this workshop\, participants will:· Understand the three types of testimony that may be requested of therapists in family court.· Be able to develop and prepare for a thoughtful response to testimony requests from clients and others.· Have a basic knowledge of how and how not to respond to questions while providing testimony. \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. She served on the Psychiatry Faculties at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in NYC and Harvard Medical School in Boston\, MA to research the underlying contributors seen in people with mood\, personality\, and psychotic disorders. She worked clinically with perpetrators as well as survivors of domestic violence and coercive control. Her experience has given her insights into the dynamics of high conflict families as well as the complex and nuanced challenges posed to the counselors who work with them.Now an attorney in WA State\, Fran represents health care providers undergoing Board investigations. To help licensees avoid such complaints\, Fran develops Disclosure and Informed Consent resources tailored to individual practice\, so that providers can simultaneously minimize counselor risk and maximize client care. Fran provides legal consultation to agencies\, counselors\, and other healthcare providers working with individual adults\, children\, couples\, and families\, often in “high conflict” situations. Fran speaks nationally on the importance of well-administered Informed Consent as well as the many factors that can affect clinical care. \n\n\n\nTracee Parker\, Psy.D. is the Justice for Families Project Manager at the Coalition Ending Gender-Based Violence\, where she has co-authored (with Dr. Anne Ganley) Intimate Partner Violence Impact Assessment – A process for collecting\, analyzing\, and presenting information. Her background includes domestic violence advocacy\, supervised visitation for domestic violence cases\, domestic violence perpetrator treatment\, training and consultation\, mediation\, nonviolent conflict resolution training\, and expert testimony. Her doctoral research focus was post-separation battering via access to children and working with men who batter. Dr. Parker is also adjunct faculty at Seattle University in the Social Work Department where she teaches a 10-week course entitled\, Domestic Violence in the U.S. \n\n\n\nEarn 2 Ethics CEUs from WA State Society for Clinical Social Work \n\n\n\nFor questions and accommodations requests\, reach out to Nykki nykki@endgv.org

SUMMARY:Spring 2026 Advocate Gathering
DESCRIPTION:“For one of the most vital ways to sustain ourselves is by building communities of resistance\, places where we know we are not alone” -bell hooks \n\n\n\nLet’s get together! Join us for our spring gathering of system-based and community-based gender-based violence advocates to continue to deepen our connections and practice collective care. \n\n\n\nAdvocates spend their days holding space for survivors and carrying the weight of their stories. At the same time\, many of us are carrying the weight of emotional numbing and exhaustion that can come from doing this work in systems that do not offer the same level of care we strive to provide others. We know that sustainable advocacy requires collective care. When advocates have space to process\, reconnect\, and restore\, we strengthen our ability to continue showing up for survivors and one another.  \n\n\n\nDuring our time together\, advocates will rotate through “restoration stations” and will get the opportunity to sample various creative ways to connect with each other and regulate their nervous systems.  \n\n\n\nAgenda:1:00 – 1:30 Welcome\, Intro\, Grounding1:30 – 1:50 Organization highlights \n\n\n\nBREAK2:00 – 3:45 Main Topic: “The Art of Restoration: Centering Collective Care and Self-Preservation”Snacks\, sweets\, and coffee/tea will be provided.Planned in partnership with: The Coalition Ending Gender-Based Violence\, DVHopeline (New Beginnings)\, the King County Protection Order Advocacy Program. \n\n\n\n*Please note that while targeted for gender-based violence direct service staff at our membership organizations\, this event is open to staff at all levels across our membership!*ASL interpreters available.

SUMMARY:Understanding Narrative Power and Tools for Messaging & Storytelling
DESCRIPTION:We are hosting an interactive in-person training on storytelling and communication. Join us! \n\n\n\nHow do we build narrative power? The narratives around us shape how people make sense of issues\, what they see as possible\, and whether they feel moved to act. When narratives shift\, they can open space for new solutions\, challenge harmful assumptions\, and help communities see shared possibilities.  \n\n\n\nWe are teaming up with El Centro de la Raza and reimagine collective to bring this conversation to our community. This is the first time reimagine collective is hosting a live Reimagine Insights session in Seattle\, Washington\, so you don’t want to miss it! \n\n\n\nYou can expect time to network and shared tools for developing values-based messages that connect with people and inspire action. Light snacks and refreshments will be provided. Space is limited\, so get your spot today!

SUMMARY:Reflections of Resilience: Understanding the Impact of Survival Exposure on Advocacy Practice 
DESCRIPTION:The work you do is powerful AND heavy.   Every story\, every call\, every moment of connection leaves an imprint. One that can stay with us in ways we don’t always notice or fully understand in the moment.  Over time\, these experiences can shape how we feel\, respond\, set boundaries\, and make decisions in our work\, often without us realizing it.  These reactions are common in advocacy work\, but they are rarely talked about openly or explored as part of our professional practice. And in a field that often expects us to keep going\, it can start to feel like we are meant to carry this work alone. We are not.  Reflections of Resilience is a highly interactive\, full-day training designed specifically for advocates supporting survivors of gender-based violence. This training explores secondary trauma/stress as a form of countertransference\, helping participants understand their responses to stress and survival exposure as meaningful signals that can be used to support their well-being and strengthen their advocacy practice.  Together\, we will explore how these experiences can serve as a mirror for self-awareness and professional growth\, offering insight into our values\, strengths\, vulnerabilities\, and patterns in advocacy.  We will examine how core beliefs\, lived experiences\, and internal narratives can shape our automatic reactions\, often influencing how we interpret situations\, respond to survivors\, and navigate boundaries without conscious awareness.  This training emphasizes experiential learning and real-world application\, ensuring participants leave not only with insight\, but with tools they can immediately integrate into their advocacy.Through hands-on exercises\, guided reflection\, discussion\, and practical practices\, participants will explore

SUMMARY:TJ Cohort | Session 3
DESCRIPTION:Our intention is to continue building practices and systems that prevent gender-based violence\, and go upstream to find our solutions!

SUMMARY:FIFA 2026: Post Game One Reflections
DESCRIPTION:FIFA World Cup 2026 is being held in Seattle\, WA this summer.  \n\n\n\nDuring mega events such as these\, communities often see an increase in gender-based violence such as sexual assault\, trafficking\, exploitation\, and abuse. As a result\, existing response systems for victims and survivors can become strained and capacity to respond to the harm\, reduced. \n\n\n\nIt’s very hard to know what to expect and what the impact on survivors and local programs will be. So\, we are offering a space to chat about it! Join us to connect with other providers\, share notes\, reflect and plan together before the next game day on June 19th.  \n\n\n\nFor questions and/or accommodations\, contact lea@endgv.org
