SUMMARY:UW-Milwaukee Child Welfare Scholars Program Presents: Creating Safety Together - A Dialogue on Family Violence
DESCRIPTION:12:30pm-4:00pm \nRegister here\nSupporting families who are facing both domestic violence and child maltreatment is inherently complex. These families are coping with multiple forms of trauma and stress that can affect parents\, children\, and the family system as a whole. Practitioners often have to balance child safety\, caregiver support\, and accountability for harm\, all while working across systems. Families may also be dealing with poverty\, housing issues\, or other barriers that make it even harder to find stability. Because of these challenges\, effective practice and policies require strong collaboration\, trauma-informed approaches\, and a focus on building safety and trust for both families and the professionals who support them. \nJoin us for a dynamic conversation that brings together family members\, domestic violence advocates\, judges\, child welfare professionals\, and community partners. This interactive session is designed to highlight diverse perspectives and lived experiences by creating space for honest dialogue and shared learning. Together\, we will explore strategies to strengthen our collective response and build more effective supports for families navigating these challenges. \nIn-Person at UWM Student Union Room E280 or virtually via Zoom (link sent day prior to conference). \n\nThe conference is free of charge for all participants\, but registration is required.\nParking is available in UWM Union structure and will be validated.\nContinuing Education Hours (CEHs) are available for participation in the conference.\n\n\nAgenda\n12:30-12:45pm – Welcome \n12:45-1:30pm – Keynote Presentation – Hector Hernandez\, Senior Director of Advocacy\, Sojourner Family Peace Center \n1:30-2:00pm – Community Partner Presentation \n2:00-2:15pm – Break \n2:15-4:00pm – Community Partner Presentations \n\nPresenters\n \n\nHector Hernandez\nSenior Director of Advocacy\, Sojourner Family Peace Center \nHector Hernandez has worked for Sojourner Family Peace Center for the past 19 years.
