The Nebraska Coalition to End Sexual and Domestic Violence invites you to join us this Sexual Assault Awareness Month for a powerful, eye-opening presentation on sexual violence and intimate partner violence in the context of disability, presented in partnership with Disability Rights Nebraska.
People with disabilities experience sexual violence and intimate partner violence at alarming rates, and yet this population remains critically underserved. This powerful, eye-opening presentation equips advocates, service providers, and community members with the knowledge and tools needed to make a real difference.
What You’ll Gain:

- Valuable insight into the disability community and disability culture, helping you engage with greater awareness, sensitivity, and effectiveness
- A curated collection of organizations and resources you can put to use immediately to better support survivors with disabilities
This training is for you if you want to: ✔ Strengthen your ability to recognize signs of abuse in people with disabilities ✔ Provide more inclusive, informed support to survivors ✔ Build connections to resources that can change and save lives
Join us to deepen your understanding of the unique challenges faced by people with disabilities and walk away ready to take action.
