If so, check out this no-cost online training that takes approximately 25 minutes to complete and is designed for those who work with survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV).

Are you interested in further enhancing your organization’s ability to support survivors who may be living with a brain injury? Please check out this document for more information about the Online Brain Injury Screening and Support System (OBISSS), a free and confidential screening tool that identifies the likelihood of a lifetime history of non-traumatic and traumatic brain injuries. If the screening is positive, it helps individuals identify symptoms that may be interfering with their daily activities, and strategies to help!
