Invisible Injuries: Traumatic Brain Injury, Strangulation and Crimes Against Women
Description: Head trauma and strangulation are common in domestic and sexual violence, yet brain injuries often go undetected—and most service providers aren’t trained to recognize them. The consequences can be life-altering, affecting how survivors think, feel, and engage with services. This eye-opening session invites you to explore new ways of understanding trauma and its hidden impacts. You’ll also be introduced to CARE—an evidence-based, trauma-informed framework with practical tools to increase safety, accessibility, and healing. Don’t miss this opportunity to strengthen your response and better support survivors.
