A Real Family Supports: Gender Identity and Domestic Violence
Show Notes

Welcome back listeners! We're so honored to have our friend and colleague, Ripley Varela from the West Virginia Coalition Against Domestic Violence joining us for this episode to talk about the complex needs of non-cisgender survivors.   We cover everything from unique barriers they can face, to how trans-erasure can leave domestic violence victims without resources and services.


If you'd like to learn more about this topic, we're also offering a FREE virtual training coming up on June 28th at 10am, co-presented by Ripley and Branches advocate, Sara Blevins O'Toole.  Register on Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/gender-identity-domestic-violence-training-tickets-656153251037

Branches Domestic Violence Shelter has been providing services to. victims of domestic violence in the Appalachian communities of Cabell, Wayne, Mason, Lincoln, and Putnam counties in West Virginia.
