NEW DATE!

Join us virtually on May 27th - 29th for three days of free workshops! From therapy rooms to courtrooms, creating diverse survivor-centered systems that heal, not harm.

Hosted by the Statewide Training Team at the Sexual Assault Center, this annual conference is designed to amplify the voices and wisdom of experts working on the front lines of caring for sexual assault survivors. Our target audience includes clinicians, advocates, educators, first responders, and school-based professionals – anyone playing a role on the front line of supporting survivors and fostering healing.  

CEUs available upon request.

Sexual Development 0-18: Behaviors, Identity, and Trauma (2 CEUs available)

This online training explores the dynamics of childhood sexual development from ages 0 – 18. We will discuss how traumatic experiences can “flip the switch” and influence sexual development resulting in experiences and behaviors that are commonly misunderstood by professionals working with survivors of childhood sexual abuse.

NASW-TN CEUs and attendance certificates available upon request.

Sexual Assault & The Brain: The Neurobiology of Trauma (1.5 CEUs available)

The physiological components of trauma, including neurobiology and nervous system dysregulation, are the main focus of this training. We will discuss how traumatic experiences can alter brain function, resulting in experiences and behaviors that are commonly misunderstood by professionals working with survivors of sexual assault. Participants will leave with an understanding of brain development and functioning as it relates to sexual assault as well as common, involuntary responses to sexual assault, and how to apply these concepts to increase safety and care for survivors.
