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:Building Changes' Diversion Training
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with the Washington State Advanced Diversion Consultants & Trainers\, Africatown International\, and the Bezos Day 1 Families Fund\, Building Changes is coordinating intensive two-day Diversion trainings. These two-day trainings are free and will be offered multiple times in 2025. \n\n\n\nWhat is Diversion: Diversion offers flexible\, light-touch services that may be coupled with minimal financial assistance that results in a temporary or permanent housing arrangement outside of the homeless system. \n\n\n\nWho should attend: These trainings are accessible for everyone but will have particular relevance for homeless/housing assistance providers\, community-based partners working with people seeking services\, and representatives from systems adjacent to our homeless response system. Right now we are prioritizing trainings for providers working in King County\, WA. If you are outside of King County and would like to inquire about available spots in upcoming trainings\, or if you are are interested in scheduling a separate training for your community\, please contact Dimitri Groce\, Director of Practice Innovation at Building Changes. \n\n\n\nWhat will be covered: In this training\, participants will learn the Diversion approach and apply their skills through hands-on practice guided by experienced Diversion Coaches. The Diversion approach is intended to be a fast intervention applicable at any step in helping individuals and families identify immediate\, safe housing arrangements. It can be coupled with financial assistance for temporary or permanent housing arrangements outside of the homeless system. \n\n\n\nFormat: Each training is two days\, taking place 9:30 am–3:30 pm each day. Day 1 of the training will be virtual\, and Day 2 will be in person at Pacific Tower in Seattle.

The Diversion approach is intended to be a fast intervention applicable at any step in helping individuals and families identify immediate\, safe housing arrangements. It can be coupled with financial assistance for temporary or permanent housing arrangements outside of the homeless system. \n\n\n\nFormat: Each training is two days\, taking place 9:30 am–3:30 pm each day. Day 1 of the training will be virtual\, and Day 2 will be in person at Pacific Tower in Seattle.

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.
