Course overview:
First-line support is an essential part of the care that you can provide to survivors of sexual violence and intimate partner violence. It is an adaption of “psychological first aid.” First-line support involves responding to women who disclose violence in a way that is supportive, helps to meet their needs and prioritizes their continued safety without intruding on their privacy. First-line support helps to meet the survivor’s emotional and practical needs and may be offered whether a woman chooses to have a physical exam or requires any additional physical or mental care. This course introduces you to the LIVES model of first-line support. This model involves five elements (Listen, Inquire, Validate, Enhance safety, and support).
