What Works
Engaging participants through dialogue and discussion about domestic violence, dating abuse, and sexual assault has been the best form of training. Training sessions are designed to leave participants with three main points: identifying behaviors which lead to domestic violence, knowing quick, local response options, and leading the community in prevention work. The curriculum for each session is designed to meet the needs of the population receiving training.
