ACE Foundation Programs
This presentation provides a context for clinical work with adults and children victimized by family violence. Family violence is a trauma that impacts the individual, the family and the society at large. Presenter will use a foundation of the historical and political lessons in family violence to bring into focus the invisible and inter-generational wounds of abuse. Participants will be able to “see” domestic abuse beyond the criminal injuries and will be able to develop a clinical assessment and treatment plan. Participants will examine their own personal attitudes including cultural values other than their own to gain general practice skills for assessing and working with these adults and children using a trauma lens. Presenter will use case examples across culture, class, faith, sexuality and mental health to illuminate the expanse of family violence in our society.
