Sitkans Against Family Violence will begin their free community training this Saturday, August 22. According to SAFV’s Martina Kurzer, this year’s training will include sessions on trauma and self-care, how domestic violence affects children, and legal advocacy.
The annual training is open to Sitkans who want to become an ally for all those who suffer secretly from interpersonal violence. Sessions are Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. with a one-hour lunch and Mondays from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Unitarian Fellowship Hall (408 Marine Street). The training concludes on Monday, September 21.
