Virtual Interactive Trainings

Training for law enforcement, social workers, human services agencies, court officials, victim advocates, mental health professionals, caregivers, and more.

Due to COVID-19, our trainings are held virtually via the Zoom platform.

Training rates have been drastically reduced to make it easier for individuals to attend virtually. Space in our trainings is limited to allow for our instructors to have more interaction times with the learners.

Our virtual trainings are very interactive and engaging — participants will be able to contribute to discussion and ask any questions that they have.

Each week, trainings will be held on Thursdays from 1-4pm EST.
