Safety Planning to Support Latine LGBTQ+ Survivors of IPV
here is a critical need to highlight the intersection of cultural needs, health, and the well-being of Latine LGBTQ+ survivors in violence prevention, treatment, and safety planning. IPV in Latine LGBTQ+ communities remains under-researched and unaddressed in the public health and healthcare field.
This workshop will delve into this by covering the vulnerabilities of Latine LGBTQ+ survivors, creating and understanding how safety planning for Latine survivors requires service providers to think outside the box, and responding to case scenarios.
Latine LGBTQ+ survivors need service providers and organizations that understand and can validate the challenges exacerbated by complex immigration laws, anti-immigrant sentiments, and language access issues.
