Human Trafficking and Domestic Violence: Incorporating Culturally Responsive Approaches for Latin@ Survivors
The Family and Youth Services Bureau (FYSB), in collaboration with Casa De Esperanza, invites you to join the webinar, Human Trafficking and Domestic Violence: Incorporating Culturally Responsive Approaches for Latin@ Survivors.
Intimate partner violence and human trafficking intersect in many ways, especially among vulnerable populations. It is critical to identify Latin@ survivors of domestic violence and sex or labor trafficking by using screening tools that incorporate a culturally relevant approach.
This interactive webinar will discuss culturally relevant approaches to identify and serve Latin@ survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking. Additionally, participants will be introduced to the new resource Human Trafficking Screening Tool and Resource Guide for Latin@s Accessing Domestic Violence Programs. These new resources provide information on human trafficking of Latin@s in the U.S.; the intersections of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking; and the organizational preparedness for conducting a screening process.
DATE: Monday, March 29th, 2021
TIME: 2:00-3:30PM EST

CDHS Listening Sessions
A statewide group of advocates, supported by the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS), is inviting survivors of domestic violence to share with us their experiences with domestic violence and child welfare. CDHS has been convening the Domestic Violence and Child Welfare Task Group since August 2020. We would like to invite members of the general public and Task Group to share with us their experiences to inform our work.
This will be an open forum for members to listen, learn and understand. We want to provide a safe environment for this and will work with individuals to develop the safety that they need to share their stories or experiences. You can speak during the meeting, ask someone to speak for you or submit a written statement for an organizer to read aloud. This is a public meeting but it will not be recorded.
Each time slot will be set for 10 minutes to allow for the most participation and there will be 4 dates available throughout the summer.
