Effective Treatment for Survivors of Intimate Partner Violence
A Recorded Webinar
Recorded on Wednesday, May 11, 2022

Jump to Course Contents
Description
It has long been recognized that abuse by an intimate partner increases a person’s risk for developing a range of health conditions, including substance use disorders (SUD). Research has found high rates of both past and current intimate partner violence (IPV) among people in SUD treatment settings. At the same time, survivors often face siloed services with little access to safety or stability in recovery. This workshop will offer an overview of the intersection between substance use disorders and victimization by an intimate partner, as well as best practices in safe and effective treatment for survivors.
Learning Objectives
  • Participants will be able to identify three instances of how multi-directional relationships between substance use disorders and intimate partner violence exist.
  • Participants will be able to identify at least four strategies for increasing safe access to SUD treatment.
  • Participants will be able to identify two ways to actively link survivors to anti-violence advocacy services in their community.
