June 2012Vol. 13, No. 5Honor Our Voices
The University of Minnesota's School of Social Work added a new online training module to its list of professional development resources.
Honor Our Voices is presented by the Avon Foundation for Women, the Minnesota Center Against Violence and Abuse, and the Center for Advanced Studies in Child Welfare. It allows viewers to see and experience domestic violence through the eyes and voices of three children. The unique module aims to raise understanding of the effects of domestic violence on children. A downloadable guide for practice and a digital library of audio recordings of children's voices highlighting promising practices are also available.
Viewers who opt to take the quiz at the end of the module—and score an 80 percent or higher—are eligible for one continuing education credit at the cost of $15.
Honor Our Voices is available on the University of Minnesota School of Social Work website:
