This training will focus on identifying and building competencies, understanding why firearm discussions are a must, and becoming mindful of how the advocate’s biases may be a barrier to a victim’s safety. During Part 1 of this training, you will learn the “Why” behind the importance of being able to speak to clients about firearms and firearm storage.
