This webinar, hosted by the Training Institute on Strangulation Prevention, features Dr. Jacquelyn Campbell, Dr. Ralph Riviello, Gael Strack and three leading programs who have implemented strangulation policies and practices into their work - the Dove Program, the Tulsa Family Safety Center and One Safe Place. The webinar covers the most current information and research on the Danger Assessment tool, the medical consequences of a strangulation assault and describes best practices for a front line staff member to provide services to a strangled victim. Suzann Stewart, Michelle Morgan and Audrey Bergin discuss how they have integrated some practical approaches into their organizations and how front-line staff can communicate the medical aspects of strangulation with victims using a trauma informed approach. Finally, the webinar teases part II, which will focus on new research in the field of Traumatic Brain Injury, the Science of Hope and recommendations for front line professionals. .
