SUMMARY:Justice Clearinghouse | No Safe Place: How Domestic Violence Harms Children
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nChildren don’t just witness domestic violence. They EXPERIENCE it. Even when not the direct target of the abusive act\, seeing a parent\, sibling\, grandparent\, or pet targeted by abuse can have a significant long-term emotional and psychological impact on children. In fact\, many childhood survivors of domestic violence often indicate wishing THEY had been the target of the abuse\, rather than having to watch their loved ones be targeted by the abuser. \nThis webinar will discuss the specific threats of physical\, psychological\, and emotional harm for children living in a home where partner abuse/domestic violence occurs. Common misconceptions will be addressed\, including the idea that a child can be too young to be affected by abuse in the home\, physically observable signs of injury are an appropriate estimator of victimization\, and the idea that children who do not actually see a violent act occur are not significantly harmed by it. In addition\, participants will learn of multi-disciplinary initiatives and concepts that relate to improving the prevention and detection of domestic violence occurring in homes where children reside and mitigating the harmful impact of witnessing and experiencing the abuse of a loved one. \nOther topics to be discussed include the various forms of child emotional maltreatment\, toxic stress\, child-caregiver attachment\, “emotionally unavailable parents\,” the effects of witnessing threats or violence against animals living within the home\, caregiver risk factors for domestic violence and emotional maltreatment\, how to better identify victims\, and what to do once victims have been identified. \nDuring this webinar\, you’ll learn: \n\nThe specific forms of child emotional maltreatment.\nWhy children in domestically violent homes are at risk for experiencing every form of emotional maltreatment.\nThe negative health and behavioral outcomes often experienced by childhood victims of domestic violence.\nKey concepts in successful multi-disciplinary initiatives for improving detection and prevention of domestic violence in homes where children reside.\n\nRegister Through Justice Clearinghouse\n

SUMMARY:MAC | Wellness Workshop: Being and Becoming: Connecting with Our Inner Wisdom for Liberation and Joy
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nThis session invites participants to pause and reconnect with their inner wisdom through the practice of Sankalpa\, a Sanskrit word meaning “deep intention” or “resolve.” Drawing from yoga philosophy and mind-body medicine\, we’ll explore how clarifying what matters most can guide sustainable action and resilience in demanding work. \nParticipants will be guided through a short Wise Guide meditation to access intuition\, reflect on the four core desires of the soul: purpose (dharma)\, prosperity (artha)\, joy (kama)\, and liberation (moksha) — and create a Sankalpa: a clear\, present-tense intention to guide the next six months. \nThey’ll leave with a personalized intention\, simple grounding practices to return to it daily\, and a renewed connection to the deeper “why” that sustains their work over time. \nThis workshop will be recorded\, the recording will be made available exclusively for MAC members. \nAbout the Trainer\nRochelle Younan-Montgomery \nAs the Founder and CEO of The Reset\, Rochelle now leads with a bold vision: that leadership rooted in mindfulness\, equity\, and nervous system regulation can be a force for healing and systemic change. Her approach is both strategic and deeply embodied—drawing from her training as a trauma-informed yoga instructor\, Certified Intercultural Development Inventory® (IDI®) practitioner\, racial justice facilitator\, and somatic abolitionist. \nShe’s also a published author\, a mother of two\, and a fierce believer in collective care. Rochelle’s work is about more than workplace performance—it’s about helping leaders return to themselves\, so they can lead with courage\, rest\, and integrity. \nRegister Through MAC\n  \n

SUMMARY:Justice Clearinghouse IPV in the LGBTQ+ Community
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nCulture is culture\, and if you aren’t part of it\, you can’t always make sense of it right away. Queer and trans survivors of IPV often face additional barriers to safety\, above and beyond the difficulties all survivors face\, whether it’s from the specific\, identity-based tactics their abuser uses\, from an unsupportive or estranged family\, or a history of cold\, even contemptuous\, responses from those who represent the system. Even the most well-intentioned first responders and advocates can struggle to adequately serve this population without an awareness of these barriers and their history. \nLearning Objective\n\nDemonstrate both the differences and shared experiences of LGBTQ+ community members in general and IPV survivors in particular.\nApproach LGBTQ+ survivors with a deeper understanding of the barriers already at play long before the 911 call was made.\nRecognize the impact of words and actions that may seem innocuous from the outside and how slight adjustments can make a huge difference in LGBTQ+ survivors feeling seen\, heard\, and understood by first responders.\n\nRegister Through Justice Clearinghouse\n

SUMMARY:Justice Clearinghouse The Intersection of Human Trafficking and Financial Investigations
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nHuman trafficking affects an estimated 50 million victims globally\, with approximately 400\,000 individuals exploited in the United States through sex trafficking\, labor trafficking\, or domestic servitude. This illicit trade generates staggering profits—approximately $240 billion annually—surpassing the earnings of major Fortune 500 companies such as Apple\, Amazon\, and Disney. \nTraditionally\, law enforcement has relied heavily on victim testimony to secure convictions against traffickers. However\, this approach presents significant challenges\, as proving a human trafficking case often depends on victims who may be unable or unwilling to testify due to fear\, trauma\, or other barriers. \nFortunately\, alternative strategies exist to target traffickers effectively. Like narcotics trafficking\, human trafficking generates enormous profits that are difficult to hide. This webinar will explore how investigators can conduct parallel financial investigations\, leveraging federal money laundering statutes and resources such as the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) to disrupt traffickers’ operations and strengthen cases. \nRegister Through Justice Clearinghouse\n

SUMMARY:Justice Clearinghouse | Breaking the Cycle: Moving Your Organization Beyond Conflict Toward Collaboration
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nOver the past decade\, our world has undergone dramatic shifts — global pandemics\, rising political polarization\, the normalization of outrage in media and online spaces\, and a growing sense that traditional values and respectful discourse are disappearing. Many now feel overwhelmed\, discouraged\, and resigned to a culture where conflict is constant and character or professionalism no longer counts. \nBut is this truly the inevitable path forward — or can we choose something better? \nIn this powerful\, thought-provoking webinar\, we’ll explore the underlying causes of today’s cultural climate and why so many individuals and organizations remain stuck in cycles of negativity. More importantly\, we’ll share practical\, research-backed strategies to shift mindsets\, strengthen personal influence\, and build the communication skills needed to reduce conflict and foster meaningful connections in your life\, workplace\, and community. \nRegister Through Justice Clearinghouse\n

SUMMARY:Justice Clearinghouse How Do We Know We Are Making a Difference?
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nHow do service providers know they are making a difference in the lives of people impacted by crime? The best way to learn this is to ask the victims who received the services. \niMPRoVE is a free tool developed with funding and support from the U.S. Office for Victims of Crime\, Office on Violence Against Women\, and the National Institute of Justice that helps providers to do just that. It is an online platform that helps any and all types of victim-serving organizations create a customized survey for collecting feedback from victims on the services they received. It also helps programs see their results through an interactive data dashboard. \nThis presentation examines the importance of measuring service outcomes\, the range of intended outcomes that victim service providers strive to achieve\, and how providers can use this free outcome measurement platform and survey tool to learn from survivors about the ways services changed their lives. See a demonstration of how the platform works and hear from a service provider about why and how they use the platform and resulting data. \nRegister Through Justice Clearinghouse\n
