February 19 – The Abuse Continuum: Power and Control as a Motivator to Perpetuate Child Sexual Abuse, Sex Trafficking, and Domestic Violence
Speakers:
Kelly Slaven, chief clinical officer, DCAC
Jessica Brazeal, chief programs officer, New Friends New Life
Often the fields of intervention of domestic violence, child sexual abuse, and sex trafficking can operate somewhat, if not completely, independently from one another. But when taking a closer look at these issues, there are many of the very same tactics, traits, and patterns of the abuse that occur in each type of abuse.
Learn from two experts, Kelly Slaven and Jessica Brazeal, in all three fields as we examine the general components of each category before drawing connections and exploring the progression that occurs within these three systems.
