Podcasts about domestic violence services

February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, a time dedicated to shedding light on an issue that affects far too many young people. Sobeida Rosa, Community Educator with Domestic Violence Services of Lancaster County, works to educate the public about Domestic Violence and resources available at DVS Lancaster. “Teens can also be involved or experience these types of things within their dating. And it's super important to raise awareness because we want to make sure we can try to do some prevention, some reframing so that they can in turn be adults with healthy relationships and kind of get these warning signs early before, you know, the added pressure of adulthood on top of being in a relationship, “said Rosa. Kristen Herman, Pennsylvania Coalition Against Domestic Violence says educating young folks before they become adults provides an opportunity to help as they’re forming relationships. “You know, whether we like it or not, kids at this age are dating. What that looks like to them and what that sounds like to us might be two totally different things, but it is happening. And we are seeing emotional, psychological, physical, sexual abuse in teen dating relationships as well, especially when we look at things like the use of technology in that age group, “said Herman. Listen to the podcast to hear how technology and social media plays a role in teen dating abuse, what to look out for if a parent suspects their teen is in a abusive relationship, and the first steps a teen should take If they find themselves in a abusive relationship.

One of the reasons we created the pod was to tell our own stories. In this episode from Season 2, we remember dating and marriage within Christian fundamentalism, how it was rarely egalitarian, over-spiritualised, and that it was usually monitored or even controlled by pastors and leaders.  Warning: This episode touches on issues concerning rape and domestic violence.

We got passionate and informed in this episode.I had the honor of hosting @TracyDeTomasi, CEO of Callisto, a survivor-founded nonprofit that has been able to create an encrypted platform allowing sexual assault survivors to find others harmed by the same perpetrator, without requiring them to report or come forward publicly. With a match in the Callisto Vault system, survivors receive free and confidential legal options counseling. This is a win-win-win and yet – with all of the money and resources in the world - Callisto is at risk of closing their doors. How can this be?We dive into a very REAL conversation about what's at stake. Activist, educator and Jeffrey Epstein survivor, Jess Michaels, underscores the fact that surviving sexual assault is difficult on many levels - but it is made a bit easier when you aren't alone in it; Callisto is a force for healing in that sense.The three of us converse boldly about the REAL good being done and the voices and financial backing needed to continue that important work. Join me, Jess, Tracy and the team as we imagine a world in which survivors of sexual violence are supported and empowered to find healing and justice on their own terms. We hope you will join in this important  conversation…Resources mentioned in this episode:TED Talk: The reporting system that sexual assault survivors want | Jessica Laddhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orumugzJpt0Previous season episodes with guest, Jess Michaels:Surviving Epstein; Normalizing Our Response to Sexual Assault - part 1https://www.listenforreal.com/surviving-epstein-normalizing-our-response-to-sexual-assault-part-1/Surviving Epstein; Normalizing Our Response to Sexual Assault - part 2https://www.listenforreal.com/surviving-epstein-normalizing-our-response-to-sexual-assault-part-2/Our Guests:Tracy DeTomasiTracy has held leadership positions over the past 20 years, across the nonprofit sector, where she developed and implemented trauma-informed programming and curricula. She was instrumental in changing domestic violence laws in the US and has worked on projects globally with The Commonwealth of Nations, Ecuador, Australia, The United Kingdom, South Africa, and Ghana. Previously, Tracy was the Co-Founder of Good People Collective, the Interim Executive Director at NO MORE, and the VP of Domestic Violence Services at the YWCA.As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Tracy has extensive experience working in the field of gender-based violence, giving her a deep understanding of the ecosystem of survivors, offenders, and allies. She has consulted with organizations to develop tech-based tools, such as an app that educates users about violence against women, a smartphone device for sexual violence prevention safety, and virtual reality trainings to address Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and Anti-Sexual Harassment.Website: https://www.projectcallisto.org/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/callisto/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/callistoorgLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/callisto-tech-to-combat-sexual-assault/ Jess Michaels is a dance industry professional with 30 years experience as a performer, educator, and entrepreneur.She is also a 1991 survivor of sexual assault by Jeffrey Epstein and childhood sexual abuse. Shockingly, her healing journey began December 14, 2012, after she and her hometown of Newtown CT were devastated by the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Jess not only witnessed the impact of mass tragedy all around her but also experienced the full force of her past trauma catching up to her.  In 2015, Jess found immense purpose and hope when she joined Dylan's Wings of Change, a foundation dedicated to Dylan Hockley, one of the first-grade victims in the mass shooting. She helped develop the Wingman program for dance studios, sports, and schools and her work as a speaker & educator on empathy, inclusion, and community-building began. It was there in Newtown, teaching dance classes and working alongside brave parents who lost their children, Jess began to connect the value of shame-free, community-based early trauma intervention to the needs of sexual assault survivors.The 2019 arrest of Epstein motivated her to finally confront her past. Breaking her #MeToo silence, she channeled her own healing journey into action.Today, she's the founder and driving force behind 3Joannes SAFR—a groundbreaking Sexual Assault First Aid Certification Course and SA First Aid Kit (mobile app). Through her work, Jess equips communities with the tools to minimize the devastating long-term effects of sexual violence.Her ultimate goal? To ensure no one else loses decades shackled by the ghosts of unprocessed trauma, as she did.Website: https://www.jessmichaelsspeaks.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/jessmichaelsspeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessmichaelsspeaks?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=ios_app  About Jen Oliver:I pursue and create environments where we converse on the REAL stuff that changes us.

Welcome to Out of the Streets of Portland, a podcast focused on sharing the stories of people who are currently or formerly homeless in our community, and helping navigate the systems and services that the Joint Office of Homeless Services and its partners either have in place, or are developing, to help people move out of homelessness and back into stable, supportive housing.  On this episode of Out of the Streets of Portland, we bring you part two of a two part episode featuring the Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault system of care funded and supported by the Joint Office of Homeless Services in Multnomah County. This system serves Survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking, as well as their children or other dependents.  On this episode, we speak with three staff members at Raphael House - Shaykeishya, Ashley and Rachel, who help survivors navigate the system to get the help and support they need. Here are some phone numbers people who think they may be in a domestic violence situation can call to get some help. The first number is Call to Safety - 503.235.5333 - a 24-hour staffed crisis line for people in the Portland metro area. En espanol - tenemos un Línea de Crisis 503-232-4448. Es un Línea 24 horas para las sobrevivientes de violencia doméstica y/o asalto sexual. Survivors can also call the Gateway Center for Domestic Violence Services during regular business hours at 503-988-6400 to go through an assessment, which can then determine eligibility for Raphael House or other Joint Office funded programs in the Portland area.   Shaykeishya, Ashley and Rachel have all been through the process of recovery from domestic violence and addiction themselves, and are now working at Raphael House in a program called Domestic Violence Recovery Mentors helping other people flee domestic violence situations. The program is open to people of all genders who are fleeing an abusive relationship and experiencing an addiction - substance use disorder or another type of addiction. The program they run is called Domestic Violence Recovery Mentors. To find out more about this program, contact Shaykeishya at 503-593-3874 or shardin@raphaelhouse.com. One of the key values of the Domestic Violence/Sexual Assault is self-determination for survivors. The work is grounded in a “survivor-centered” or “survivor led” service model; recognizing that survivors know best how to meet their own needs. This focus serves to prevent replication of power & control that might resemble that used by an abuser and is one of the most important values of the Domestic Violence/Sexual Assault Continuum as a whole. You can find more information, including how to get assistance with a restraining order, at the Multnomah County website - multco.us/dv.   A full list of shelters funded by the Joint Office of Homeless Services, including congregate, motel and alternative, village-style shelters can be found at johs dot us slash shelter.   Thank you for joining us for this episode of Out of the Streets of Portland.This podcast is produced by the Joint Office of Homeless Services, a Multnomah County department with funding from the County, the City of Portland, Metro, and the state and federal governments to house, shelter, and provide street outreach, navigation, employment assistance, assistance obtaining social security income, and case management to people experiencing homelessness in our community.   Please subscribe to our podcast to get notified every time a new episode is posted.

The first anti immigration laws in the US prohibited the entry of Chinese Women. Chinese citizens were labeled a “yellow peril” and were considered an inferior race. Chinese children were barred from white schools, then later schooled under “separate but equal” laws. In the 1960's, the stereotype of the “model minority” was minted and wielded as a weapon against Black Americans to oppose the activism of the Civil Rights Movement. Fast Forward to today. May, 2020. Asian Pacific Island Heritage Month (APIHM). This month, we celebrate APIHM against the backdrop of the COVID19 pandemic, where we are seeing an upswell of racism against Chinese Americans, and other people who are mistaken for Chinese. Today on the podcast, we welcome special guest Gina Loh of Domestic Violences Services of Snohomish County to unpack this history, and what the COVID19 pandemic reveals about how Asian American's are viewed in this country.

Guest: Guest: Jeneen Klippel Director of Development and Public Relations  Domestic violence is on the rise with the stay at home orders.  Isolation is the tool abusers use to abuse and control a situation.  Gateway Domestic Violence has a 24/7 crisis line available.  They are 100% operational right now.  They are an essential agency.  Domestic violence is not just physical abuse; it is also emotional and philological.   Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse; it means the abuser is trying to make the victim think they are crazy.  An example would be them trying to convince the victim the sky is green.  Domestic violence is the most committed crime.  Gateway Domestic Violence has the crisis line, an emergency shelter, an extended stay program, a non-residential consoling program, a court advocacy program, and a community education program.          Crisis Line 303-343-1851 www.gatewayshelter.org See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Domestic violence includes psychological as well as physical abuse of a person in an intimate partner relationship.

Grace Smith House started nearly 39 years ago when a small group from Poughkeepsie’s First Presbyterian Church (including a church elder named Grace Smith) recognized that there was a need for housing to protect victims of domestic violence. Today Grace Smith House also provides transitional housing, counseling, and education in the schools and the community. Victims can easily reach help by calling the hot line, (845) 471-3033, where trained volunteers will direct the caller to help. Services of Grace Smith House are free and highly confidential.

On a daily basis, family and criminal courts depend on mandated domestic violence services for resolving cases of intimate partner violence. Thousands of defendants and respondents in our city are required to complete these services in order to have visits with their children or get back in their homes. Yet there is little evidence of the effectiveness of existing services and there continues to be a reliance on outdated services such as Batterers Accountability programs. New York City policymakers have been examining this issue and have developed a Blueprint for Abusive Partner Intervention. A report published in 2018, “Seeding Generations: New Strategies Towards Services for People who Abuse,” took a comprehensive look at this issue and the need for a new model of services. The report acknowledges that services to families also need to consider the trauma that those who harm have been through. This panel on January 17, 2019 served as an opportunity for policymakers to have a dialogue with family court and criminal court practitioners about the current and future state of domestic violence services.
