This webinar will begin with an overview of why family legal professionals should screen for FV, what holds them back and what screening tools will help standardize the process. Moving beyond screening, the panel will introduce a new online assessment guide––the e-SAFeR––that is designed to help family law professionals create parenting plan recommendations that account for FV and forefront the safety of the children and the parent who experienced FV.
By attending this webinar, participants will:
- Gain a better understanding of children’s best interests in family law cases where there has been family violence
- Enhance understanding of the importance of screening for family violence in the context of family litigation
- Learn about a new guide for assessing the nature, severity and impact of family violence––the e-SAFeR
NOTE: This Webinar will run in English with simultaneous French and American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation. A Webinar recording will be made available after the Webinar. Register for the Webinar and receive an email when the recording is posted. See previous webinar recordings here.
