Supporting LGBTQ+ Survivors Workshop with Fenway Health's Violence Recovery Program
In honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, join Q and SARP on Tuesday, April 20th 6:00-7:00 pm ET for a workshop led by the Violence Recovery Program at Fenway Health. This workshop will discuss the needs & challenges of LGBTQ+ survivors of sexual &/or domestic violence. We will be discussing unique barriers that LGBTQ+ survivors of sexual assault face, as well as best practices to support survivors so that the community has tangible ways to support queer & transgender survivors mindfully & intentionally. Content warning: the content in this workshop will mention sexual violence, domestic violence, & anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination. Open to the BU community. Closed captioning will be available.
