Unconscious Collusion with Perpetrators in Domestic and Family Violence Work
This seminar is currently at capacity. If you would like to be added to the waiting list please email aaswact@aasw.asn.au.
Christine Craik, National President of the AASW, will share her expertise in successful, evidence-based models of practice in family violence.
Current research demonstrates that not only are workers often unable to identify the presence of family violence, they often misidentify the aggressor and in the process of this, are unintentionally colluding with the perpetrators. The misidentification leads to increased risk, silencing of victim/survivors and systems abuse in the ways in which we practice as social workers.
Learning Outcomes
- To be better able to understand and identify of some of the more subtle forms of internalised DV myths
- To be better able to identify the primary aggressor in domestic and family violence situations
- To understand the consequences for victims/survivors when they are wrongly identified as the primary aggressor in these situations.
