The National Organization of Forensic Social Work is hosting a webinar led by Vanessa Sapien, MA of Just Detention International.

Learning objectives include:

• Develop an understanding of the incidence and dynamics of sexual abuse in prisons, jails and other detention settings.

• Identify the steps prisons, jails and other detention facilities are required to take under the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) standards to prevent, address and monitor sexual abuse and sexual harassment.

• Call upon trauma-informed approaches for supporting incarcerated people who have experienced sexual abuse – whether it occurred during their current incarceration or at some other point(s) in their lives. 

Continuing education credits are available for licensed social workers.
