Abingdon: Healthy Moms, Happy Babies

This classroom training provides a comprehensive model of public health prevention and intervention to improve health and safety for victims of sexual and domestic violence. The training teaches home visitors how to screen mothers/women for domestic violence (DV) using the evidence-based Relationship Assessment Tool, provide safety planning, and make referrals that meet federal benchmark requirements. As a result of the training, home visitors will have assessment strategies and tools, training curricula, educational materials, and policy/procedure guidance to better identify and provide support and referrals to individuals and families impacted by sexual and domestic violence. Early Impact Virginia has a strict no-show policy in order to continue providing free trainings for home visiting programs in the Commonwealth.
