Strangulation: The Forgotten Injury

This essential training program is specifically designed to enhance participants’ understanding of the critical role that strangulation plays in the broader context of domestic violence cases. The course aims to leverage the collective expertise of law enforcement, advocates, and prosecutors to create an environment that emphasizes the importance of comprehensive and nuanced victim interviews. By drawing on our collective experience and insights into the dynamics of abuse, we move beyond reliance on victim self-reporting. Through the examination of case studies and engaging in interactive discussions, attendees will acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to improve their response to domestic violence incidents, thereby enhancing victim safety and reinforcing prosecution efforts.
