DESCRIPTION: \nPrevention Through Advocacy: Integrating Movement History, Prevention Theory, and Practice into Advocate Training\n\n\nPrevention Through Advocacy is a two-part workshop that supports sexual and domestic violence organizations in rethinking advocate training as a place for violence prevention and movement building in addition to survivor advocacy.\nIn this training, participants will explore how the advocacy training model has been shaped by professionalization and funding structures, including the costs and benefits of standardized training that is integrated with medical, legal, law enforcement, social service, and community systems.\nBoth sessions will be from 10am to Noon via zoom - part one on Thursday, March 5th, and part two on Thursday, March 12th.\nPart 1 will look closely at the tensions this history creates for survivor-centered, community-driven, and intersectional work. You will situate your own training practices within the broader movement to end gender-based violence. Through a case study, participants will explore how professionalization and funding pressures can narrow the scope of advocacy, pulling organizations away from intersectional, community-rooted efforts to end violence and toward managing harm within existing systems. Participants will examine how advocate training can invite people into the movement rather than frame the role as limited to a volunteer or job function.\nPart 2 will shift to concrete strategies for designing and facilitating movement-aligned advocate training that builds community, shared purpose, and solidarity among advocates and staff. It concludes with guided reflection and planning to identify specific, realistic changes participants can make to better integrate prevention theory and movement grounding into their training programs.\nLOCATION: Via Zoom - link will be sent to registrants the day before.\nThis event is open to CEGV Membership, advocates, and community organizers.
