The National Spinal Cord Injury Association presents a free webinar on domestic violence and disability. This webinar will explore the intersection of domestic violence and disability. Information will be provided about programming and services available at Barrier Free Living, Inc. and the importance of specialized programming for survivors of domestic violence living with intellectual and developmental (IDD), physical and/or psychiatric disabilities.
People with disabilities are more likely to be victims of domestic violence by their loved ones and caregivers. This can include physical abuse; verbal abuse; sexual abuse; neglect; overdosing or withholding medication; financial abuse; and denying necessary mobility equipment.
Time will then be spent defining disability and exploring the unique dynamics of domestic violence and disability, with special attention focused on:
Additionally, dynamics of domestic violence, mental illness and suicidality will be examined, with a focus on Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar I and II, and Borderline Personality Disorder. The presentation will conclude with an open discussion forum for questions and answers.
