About This Webinar

Many professionals work with victims of abuse every day, but just may not know it. Domestic abuse presents in many forms, such as emotional, physical, and financial abuse. Understanding the financial considerations for domestic abuse is essential for service providers across the spectrum of family readiness coordinating care for abuse victims.

The webinar covers the demographics of the military community with a focus on recent Department of Defense data on domestic abuse and child abuse and neglect. Light will be shed on the perspectives and experiences of victims of abuse. Benefits of collaborating with the Family Advocacy Program (FAP) to best support victims will be covered. The briefing will wrap up providing clarity on what resources are available and how to connect a victim to these resources.
