In this Tech Talk, we explore how digital sharing can lead to potential tech misuse and the impact of trends like location sharing on survivors. Advocates will receive valuable tips and guidance on helping survivors enhance their privacy and safely disconnect from shared accounts. By understanding these dynamics, advocates can better support survivors in navigating the complexities of digital access while prioritizing their safety and autonomy. Thank you to David Ruiz, Senior Privacy Advocate for Malwarebytes for sharing his work and expertise with the Safety Net team.

In the course, we will explore building environments that resist retraumatization and foster healing, well-being, and equity through policy, practice, and perspective change. Equity-centered, trauma-informed environments require us to understand how our experiences with identity, culture, community, and institutions shape our perspectives and norms. Ongoing self and team reflection in this area is foundational to understanding the diverse and multi-faceted ways that both trauma and healing show up in our own lives, in our organizations, on our teams, and for the families we serve. This training series works for individuals and teams, invites ongoing reflection to shift practice change, and encourages us to consider ourselves alongside the families we work with in supervised visitation and safe exchange services.
