Mass League Intimate Partner Violence Webinar: Clinical Skills, EHRs tools, & Community Partnerships

This session will provide an overview of the health impacts of intimate partner violence (IPV) and human trafficking (HT) and the importance of the health center as a site for prevention and intervention. We will focus on ways your health center can systematically facilitate outreach, prevention, universal education, care for patients, and connections to resources while safely documenting IPV and HT within EHR for UDS reporting. Participants in this workshop will be able to:
•    name ways to support health and safety outcomes for survivors of violence who access health centers and domestic violence programs (DVPs),
•    describe the landscape of supportive community programs and tools to formalize partnerships and coordinate care between health centers and DVPs.
•    identify the UDS reporting codes that should be used for safely documenting intimate partner violence and human trafficking within EHR

Presenters: This webinar will be led by Surabhi Kukke, Consultant for Futures without Violence. Surabhi Kukke brings over 25 years of experience in women’s health and human rights, currently consulting with Futures Without Violence to support healthcare responses to intimate partner violence. Marian Amaya, Prevention & Education Manager from Jane Doe, Inc. Will also join to provide a perspective on local prevalence and resources.
