Camden Conference Community Event with New Hope for Women

Event has passed

New Hope for Women will lead a Camden Conference Community Event entitled The Impact of Language: How We Talk and Write About Domestic Violence. This pre-conference event will take as a premise that traditional and social media have a growing influence on the ways in which we learn, write, and speak about domestic violence. Together with Education and Outreach Director and presenter, Kelly O’Connor, attendees will explore the power of accountable language and how this impacts our engagement with survivors and perpetrators alike, factors that may unintentionally perpetuate a cyclical narrative of victim-blaming. This is an interactive presentation that engages audience members in a variety of accountable language activities. The talk is free and open to all.
