Pre-conference workshops

12th November

Improving approaches to substance use and gender-based violence through a structural equity lens

This workshop is designed to support participants to improve policy and practice approaches to substance use in the context of gender-based violence (GBV). Using a wide range of interactive activities, participants will be invited to evaluate their own practice contexts and develop strategies to strengthen policy and practice. Drawing on our diverse programs of research, including research on the intersections among GBV and substance use, substance use and suicidality, intervention research with women experiencing violence, intervention research on the promotion of equity at the organizational-level, and knowledge mobilization to promote equity and substance use health, we have developed a range of evidence-informed tools. These tools include information, discussion, education, planning, and evaluation tools for use in practice with people coming for services, for use in education and for use in research and in enhancing policy. The session will include attention to the key challenges of addressing substance use in the contexts of a) suicidality and b) child protection concerns.

Facilitators: Colleen Varcoe, Marilyn Ford-Gilboe, Christine Garinger, Kelly Scott-Storey, Petrea Taylor, Nadine Wathen

Workshop one (9:00am)

So much data – so little time! Team-based Rapid Qualitative Data Analysis for Informed Decision-Making

The purpose of this workshop is to equip participants with the knowledge and skills to conduct rigorous team-based rapid qualitative data analysis, especially in contexts where timely findings are required for informing policy, practice, and/or program development. This workshop combines theoretical understanding and practical hands-on activities to ensure participants not only achieve the goal of efficiency but also maintain a high standard of rigor in synthesizing qualitative data within constrained timeframes.

Facilitators: Elizabeth Orr, Karen Campbell, Sonya Strohm, Susan Jack

Workshop two (11:45am)

Implementing the Danger Assessment Tool

The Danger Assessment (DA) – This workshop will give participants an overview of risk factors for homicide and near lethality in domestic violence situations in the US and globally. They will also learn how to use the DA with women who are experiencing violence from a partner (victim/survivors) in a new interactive process developed in 2023, the weighted scoring for the DA, the resulting levels of Danger and how to do safety planning in an interactive process based on patterns shown on the calendar and on risk factors identified as present on the DA. The safety planning is for both safe staying and for safe leaving depending on what the woman wants to do and also on her level of danger on the DA. Participants will have an opportunity to practice using the DA and be eligible for certification in the DA at the completion of the session as well as receive directions on how to obtain and use the certification. They will also receive information about the DA-I (Danger Assessment for Immigrant Women), the DA-Circle (Danger Assessment for Indigenous Women), the DA-R (Danger Assessment Revised for women in an intimate relationship with another woman, and the DA-5 (meant for use in the health care system).

Facilitator: Jacquelyn Campbell
