Register for training

This series includes 11 sessions (38 hours of engaging live instruction) from experts at Raphael House and our community partners. Spaces are limited to ensure an interactive learning environment, so don’t wait!

Training topics

• Effects of trauma
• Domestic violence and youth
• Understanding oppression
• Advocacy skills and safety planning
• Intersections of domestic violence and addiction
• And much more!

Attendance
While attending all of the live sessions is strongly recommended, we recognize that’s not always possible. Most presenters have agreed to have their sessions recorded and watched later when necessary.

Certification
All attendees will be provided with access to additional self-directed online training, to complete the full 40 hours required for certification as a domestic violence advocate in Oregon.
