SafeSpace Anti-Violence Program’s Rural Provider Education Series

September 24 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

|Recurring Event (See all)

An event every week that begins at 1:00 pm on Tuesday, repeating until September 24, 2024

This series is designed for rural community support organizations to spend time with colleagues from across rural Vermont working toward increased support and access for rural LGBTQ+ survivors of sexual violence, intimate partner violence, dating violence, or stalking. This series is free for rural organizations, from healthcare to social services to community organizing bodies to emergency services. This series is facilitated by SafeSpace Anti-Violence Program’s Rural Advocacy Coordinator Eva Westheimer, with co-facilitation support by the fabulous SafeSpace team.

This series runs Tuesdays throughout the month of September on zoom. The weekly installments can be attended individually or in a small group of your staff.  We suggest attending in pairs or trios for most impact, though individuals are welcome.

Sessions are from 1-2:30PM and another hour per week available to any organization that chooses to access personalized/tailored consulting support or technical assistance.

Tuesday, September 10th 1-2:30: Intro to LGBTQ+ Identities + Gender Inclusive Language & Pronouns
