Violence Link Training
Our violence link training is based on education, intervention, and prevention for professions who work with victims of violent crime.
We provide evidenced based research on violence link to help front line workers recognize high risk situations.
We present some of the barriers, challenges and risk factors that prevent victims from leaving, and provide options to front line workers to help victims overcome those barriers, challenges and risk factors.
Violent crimes such as partner assault, elder abuse, human trafficking, gang violence, and terrorism are covered in our violence link training.
What do violence link cases and dangerous offender applications, Viclas, and Major Case Management have to do with one another? Our half and full day violence link training includes that information.
