Law Society of YukonHello Member,
The Northern Institute of Social Justice is offering a series of free, livestreamed webinars about Intimate Partner Violence (IPV). The webinars are intended for frontline workers who encounter clients dealing with IPV in their lives; and for individuals who may be neighbours, friends or family members of people subjected to IPV.
These interactive webinars will use an intersectional feminist analysis/framework, recognizing that men, trans and non-binary folx can be victims of intimate partner violence, the victims of the most serious forms of coercive controlling and physical violence, including lethal violence, are people who identify as women. Pamela Cross, who developed and delivers the webinars, is feminist lawyer who has worked on the legal issues related to gender-based violence for nearly three decades.
