This training program kicks off the Williams Institute's new initiative to train judges and other professionals on how to improve the legal system's response to domestic violence in LGBT relationships. The two-hour training, intended for practicing attorneys, law students, judges, and other professionals, will help participants to recognize the unique obstacles that LGBT survivors confront when they turn to the legal system for assistance. National experts on LGBT domestic violence will provide participants with practical information to better understand the experience of LGBT domestic violence survivors, to assess when a person is exercising systematic power and control in a relationship, and to use domestic violence restraining orders and other forms of legal relief to help survivors achieve safety, autonomy, and justice.
