This is an interactive training that helps participants establish partnerships with local military installations in order to effectively respond to the needs of sexual assault victims in the military.
Throughout this training, participants will build knowledge about military systems, protocols, and culture to improve service provision to military sexual assault victims and to develop an appreciation of the perspectives of their future collaborative partners. It is through this developing sense of awareness that civilians will begin to understand Military Service Members, the culture they live and operate in, what motivates him/her, and what a military victim may need when working with community-based advocates.
Training participants will gain information and skills related to steps toward successful collaborations, including the importance of having MOUs between community-based programs and local military installations. This training will also feature a showing and discussion of the documentary film “The Invisible War.”
This is a 2-day training that will require your attendance both days, so there will not be single-day registration available.
This training is FREE to CCASA members and only $25 for both days for non-members.
This training will be offered in both Denver and Grand Junction.
