Exposing An Abuser's Playbook
Join us and the Director of Ending The Violence, Dr. Scott Hampton for an online webinar as we:
- Explain the important distinction between intimate partner abuse and stranger abuse
- Identify the motivations and tactics of abusers
- Name and discuss the four tasks that all abusers seek to achieve
- Describe the gradual progression of abuse and how that serves to trap victims and confuse professionals
- Understand the counterintuitive decisions that victims make and how each is evidence of the abuse they suffered rather than evidence of those victims’ lack of credibility
