Social Media:
What Your Nonprofit Needs to Know
February 9, 2012
12:00pm  

Social media is becoming an important tool for nonprofits to communicate with their supporters, increase awareness of their mission and to raise funds.

 

At the same time, there are many legal issues for a nonprofit to consider when using social media. Do the rules regarding copyrights and trade marks apply? Is a nonprofit responsible for material posted on its Facebook page? Are there any privacy concerns? What if an employee posts inappropriate information on the Internet during

working hours? What policies should a nonprofit put in place?

 

This webinar will help answer these questions and give your nonprofit advice about how to navigate the new world of social media. The webinar is designed for board members, executive directors and other nonprofit staff and volunteers responsible for marketing, communications and fundraising.

 

The webinar will start at 12 noon Eastern Time and last approximately 60 minutes. 

To register, click here.
 

If you have any questions, please contact Lauren Paley at the DC Bar.

The Presumption of Guilt: How the Criminal Justice System Inadvertently Re-Traumatizes Victims of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault

Thursday, February 9th from 12:00 to 1:30pm ET

free CEUs for all registered attendees

This webinar, co-led by Dave Thomas, a retired police officer and expert in domestic violence, and Lisa Ferentz, a clinical social worker specializing in trauma, will focus on the adverse impact of the Reid technique used by police when interviewing victims of sexual assault and domestic violence. The impact of chronic trauma on survivors will be discussed and connected to inevitable outcomes in victims’ behaviors at the scene of their traumas, in the police station, and in the courtroom.

Participants will learn how these presentations are often misinterpreted by members of the criminal justice system, leading victims to be viewed as deceptive, pressured to recant, or even criminally charged with "False Report." Mental health professionals and advocates will learn how to work with victims and collaborate with the criminal justice system to ensure that victims receive the victim-centered treatment they truly deserve.

Our Presenters:

Lisa Ferentz, LCSW-C, DAPA
, is Founder and President of the Institute for Advanced Psychotherapy Training and Education, Inc. Locally, nationally and internationally, Lisa frequently presents workshops, and key note addresses for clinical social workers, and other helping professionals, and is considered an expert in the field of trauma. She is in private practice and serves as a consultant to clinicians and mental health agencies.



David R. Thomas
is a retired Montgomery County Maryland Police Department officer whose final assignment was with the Domestic Violence Unit. Presently he serves as the Program Administrator for the Domestic Violence Education Program at The Johns Hopkins University where he teaches courses related to violence against women.

Estrategias para involucrar a jóvenes Latin@s en conversaciones

directas sobre las relaciones saludables

Como miembros de nuestra comunidad, sabemos que nuestros jóvenes corren el gran riesgo de experimentar violencia en el noviazgo, al igual que otras formas de victimización que pueden tener un impacto negativo sustancial y duradero. Muchas veces, los jóvenes no tienen acceso a información con sentido para ellos; ni oportunidades para desarrollar las habilidades necesarias para identificar una relación no saludable, ni saber cómo terminar una cuando ésta ha comenzado.

Únase a nosotros para explorar estrategias que les ayudarán a hablar y apoyar a los jóvenes, tanto en nuestras vidas personales como profesionales y a aumentar sus conocimientos y habilidades sobre la importancia de las relaciones saludables, no violentas. En este seminario los estaremos retando a que ejerzan influencia en las vidas de los jóvenes de manera que conduzcan a cambios tanto en las circunstancias, como en los resultados. También le invitaremos a apoyar a la juventud en su compromiso de establecer relaciones fuertes y saludables que tendrán un impacto positivo en sus vidas. Juntos exploraremos las estrategias y oportunidades que conduzcan a la toma de decisiones que generarán cambios positivos en las vidas de los jóvenes.

Strategies for Engaging Latin@ Youth in Straightforward Conversations about Healthy Relationships

As members of our community, we know that our youth are at great risk for experiencing dating violence, as well as other forms of victimization that can have a substantial and long lasting negative impact. Far too often, youth do not have access to information that makes sense to them, nor opportunities to develop the necessary skills to identify an unhealthy relationship or to know how to end one when it becomes unhealthy.

Join us in exploring strategies that will support us in talking with and supporting the young people in our professional and personal lives to increase their knowledge and skills about the importance of healthy, nonviolent relationships. Through this webinar we will challenge you to influence the lives of youth in ways that lead to change in circumstances and outcomes. We will also encourage you to support youth in their commitment to developing strong, healthy relationships that will positively impact their lives. Let us together explore strategies and opportunities that lead to choices that create positive change in the lives of youth.
