Domestic Violence and the Workplace –
Program Implementation: Tools and Techniques for Trainers is intended to
support agency trainers who will be providing training on domestic violence in
their own agencies. While many agencies are proactively planning or providing
domestic violence training, the goal of The New York State Office for the
Prevention of Domestic Violence (OPDV) is to standardize the message being
delivered to all NYS employees. At the June 26th session, training materials
that will support a one- hour presentation will be distributed and reviewed.
Presently, the New York State Office for the Prevention of Domestic Violence (OPDV)
is sponsoring “Domestic Violence and the Workplace,” a one-day training program
specifically designed for implementation of Executive Order 19. This session is
designed for New York State employees who are designated as an Agency/OPDV
Liaison, or NYS employees who are designated to provide services to those in
need.
As a pre-requisite, all
trainers interested in attending the June 26th workshop, must first complete
this one-day session with OPDV.
Check the OPDV website at
http://www.opdv.state.ny.us/workplace/dv-workplace_trainingflyer.pdf to
register for the one-day program.
Your instructor,

months she has coordinated OPDV’s domestic violence and the workplace program
including collaborative efforts on Executive Order #19, the State of New York
Domestic Violence and the Workplace Model Policy, and the training to support
