SOAR Services
Get practical, evidence-based education with SOAR’s training programs. Equip yourself and your team with training and tools for survivors living with brain injury (BI) from intimate partner violence (IPV).
As a frontline worker, you’re often a first point of contact for survivors of intimate partner violence-yet brain injuries from the abuse are frequently misdiagnosed, misunderstood, or missed altogether.
SOAR provides comprehensive, evidence-based training designed for healthcare providers, social workers, shelter staff, police, family caregivers, advocacy groups, emergency responders and other frontline professionals to elevate your practices. From one-hour webinars to full-day workshops, our expert educational and training programs give you the tools to recognize and respond to intimate partner violence-caused brain injury.
