NYC Anti-violence Project/ LGBT The NYC Anti-Violence Project (AVP) works with service providers to address IPV in LGBTQ & HIV-affected communities. Tactics of abuse can include physical violence, threats of physical violence, sexual abuse, bullying, economic abuse, harming children, harming pets, and/or isolating one’s partner from friends and family. AVP's trainings and workshops on IPV will provide participants with information on the unique power and control tactics used by abusers. In addition, participants will be provided with knowledge on safety planning for LGBTQ & HIV-affected survivors, Participants will be able to develop best practices when working with LGBTQ & HIV-affected DV/IPV survivors, be able to give appropriate referrals, and will learn strategies to prevent or reduce the impact of DV/IPV. AVP Co-Director of Community Organizing and Public Advocacy, Chai Jindasurat, will be leading this training.
