Description
One needs only to turn to the media for a short time to be reminded that sexual violence is an ongoing societal issue. Sexual violence continues to be prevalent, and along with the rising popularity of dating apps and the anonymity provided by the online environment, this provides an opportunity for unwanted and unsolicited sexual content to be shared. All counselors-in-training must be prepared to work with clients affected by technology facilitated sexual violence (TFSV), as well as advocate for systemic changes needed to address this growing issue. In particular, school counselors must be prepared to address safety issues with students, so that TFSV does not become normalized in their environment. Join us for a timely discussion of how to prepare students and supervisees to work with and advocate for clients affected by TFSV
