Domestic violence is one of the most common, and yet challenging, issues that victim service providers encounter. Intertwined and compounded with domestic violence is the fact that many domestic violence survivors also experience other traumas and adversities. Thus, poly-victimization presents unique challenges to how we conceptualize, assess, and treat victims. This track provides information and tools to understand, assess, and treat problems related to ACES, resilience, and domestic violence from a trauma-and-resiliency informed framework.
