VAADA Family Violence AOD Community of Practice – Risk assessments with victim survivors, with Safe+Equal

FreeEvent Navigation
The MARAM Practice Guides for working with victim survivors places performing Risk Assessments as core business for AOD clinicians (see Responsibility 3). Which questions should we be asking our clients when identifying risk within their story? How do we assess the level of risk, and what is its evidence base? What does applying a Structured Professional Judgement look like, and what can we ask to ensure we’re embedding an intersectional analysis into our inclusive practice? When should we use the Brief tool, instead of the Intermediate?
Join us on Wednesday 16 November, 10am-11.30am as we work through performing Risk Assessments with clients identified as Victim Survivors. Leading the session will be Safe+Equal, the peak body for specialist family violence services that provide support to victim survivors in Victoria, who will perform a series of case studies and role-plays to learn first-hand what best practice might look like.
Please bring any of your own case examples and questions to the sessions so that our specialist family violence experts can help you sharpen your practice.
