June 14, 10-11:30 am: Exploring Values
Values are our principles—like being there for family, or wanting to be healthy. You can help your clients think about the values that guide their lives. If this exploration is done in a respectful and genuine way, it can lead to the motivation the client needs to move forward in creating change. But how do you do this? In this workshop, you will examine your own values as well as learn techniques for using values in your discussions with clients.
Basic Motivational Interviewing knowledge helpful but not required.

Specialty Institute: Enhancing Indigenous Advocacy for Survivors of IPV Impacted by Trauma, Mental Health, and Substance Use

Tues, Aug 13 - Aug 15 2024, All day


The 2024 NIWRC Specialty Institute will offer presentations addressing the complex intersections of IPV with substance use, trauma, and mental health challenges that survivors experience. IPV increases survivors’ risks of suicidality, substance use disorders, depression, PTSD, and other mental health impacts. These issues are often weaponized by offenders to revictimize, victim-blame, and isolate survivors. Survivors of domestic violence and intimate partner violence are challenged with many obstacles, especially navigating systems, finding safety, and accessing services. Additionally, survivors face increased abuse, violence, and sabotaging of recovery by current or former partners when they reach out and access resources. This Specialty Institute highlights promising practices that showcase the critical need for:
  • Trauma-informed advocacy.
  • Resilience-informed advocacy.
  • Culturally relevant advocacy.
Who Should Attend: Indigenous advocates, Community Activists/ Organizers, Mental Health Professionals, Substance Use Counselors, Survivors, Community Members, Tribal Coalitions, Law Enforcement, Criminal Justice, and Tribal social services staff, Tribal leadership and anyone wanting to support their Relatives.
