Safe and Together CORE Training

Safe and Together’s four day CORE training is designed to give multidisciplinary professionals a skills-oriented foundation for domestic violence-informed practice. This training provides key skills and learnings for participants to implement the Safe and Together model into their practice. Each day of training provides experiential training focused on four foundational practice areas: Assessment, Interviewing, Documentation, and Case Planning.
