Racial Justice as Trauma-Informed Advocacy

Racial Justice as Trauma-Informed Advocacy
9:30am to 4:00pm

Action Alliance
1118 W. Main St.
Richmond, VA 23220

Recognizing that all forms of oppression are interconnected, we know that in order to end sexual and domestic violence we must also work to end racism. This training will examine how institutional and systemic racism create disparities in experiences between survivors of color and survivors who are white (including disparities in access to resources and support following trauma exposure) and why a racial justice lens is integral to trauma-informed advocacy and prevention. Participants will be given specific examples of how the Virginia Sexual and Domestic Violence Action Alliance has integrated a racial justice lens into aspects of its work to take back to their agencies.

Lunch is provided.
