Recorded November 16th, 2017.
Join the Resource Sharing Project (RSP) and Just Detention International (JDI) for an informative webinar in which we answer victim advocates’ most pressing questions about how to help prisoners who have experienced sexual abuse “” either during their incarceration or at some other point in their lives. The webinar covers how to launch a program to serve incarcerated survivors, giving tips on how to negotiate agreements with corrections facilities, what types of services you might consider offering, and how to maintain client confidentiality in a detention setting. “Mapping It Out” introduces a written guide to help advocates who are new to working with survivors behind bars. The webinar features speakers from RSP and JDI, as well as an advocate from a rural rape crisis program that provides services to inmates in a local corrections facility.
