WEBINAR: Addressing Domestic Violence In Home Visitation Settings

Addressing Domestic Violence in Home Visitation Settings: Screening, Assessment, & Safety Planning

Monday, November 19th

2:00 - 3:30 PM EST

Who should attend? HRSA and MCHB Program officers and grantees, home visitation leadership and staff, Domestic Violence advocates, State Health Departments, and others interested in better addressing assessment, visitation benchmarks, and what they might mean for their work as well as the new resources available through the Health Resource Center on Domestic Violence.

Overview: The new federal benchmarks for home visitation require that programs document screening and track referrals. Many home visitation programs are continuing to prioritize domestic violence screening, referral, and building partnerships with local domestic violence programs.

Home visitors have a unique opportunity to improve positive outcomes for their families by building partnerships and learning more about tools and assessment strategies for integrating screening for domestic violence. This webinar will assist home visitors in understanding how to screen, refer, and document these activities as part of routine programming.
