This interactive and engaging entry-level session aims to reduce anxiety around working with survivors. Attendees will hear from members of team at Sheffield Rape & Sexual Abuse Centre (SRASAC) on topics such as:

• Defining and Understanding Sexual Violence​

We welcome all professionals and volunteers practicing in Sheffield, UK; previous attendees have included social workers, teachers, housing officers, other charities, NHS staff and Sheffield City Council staff.

SRASAC operates a safe space policy in all of our training sessions. We ask that all attendees arrive with an open mind and be mindful that everyone's understanding and experience of sexual violence will be different. All questions will be addressed in a non-judgmental manner. We have chosen to not include 'Breakout Rooms' for this webinar and have opted to offer anonymous interactive options instead. We hope this allows for all attendees to feel comfortable whilst you learn, grow, and challenge yourself.

Other available dates for this training are:

Tuesday 22nd October 2024, 1pm-4pm

Thursday 28th November 2024, 1pm-4pm

Thursday 23rd January 2025, 10am-1pm
