Responding to Disclosures for Teaching Assistants: FASS, FCCS, FHSD, and Education

UBCO | CTL Event

Modality: In-person
Location: SCI 331 

Facilitators: Johanna Black, Education, and Prevention Specialist

The UBC Okanagan Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL) invites you to join us for a two-hour session on disclosures. This session is for TAs in the faculties of Arts and Social Sciences, Creative and Critical Studies, Health and Social Development, and the School of Education.

NOTE: It is important to know that this training will include some detailed discussion of sexualized and gender-based violence.

In order to properly respond to sexualized and gender-based violence, we must first understand what it is and some of the common ways that we see it showing up on our campus. In this session, we will explore:

• Definitions of various forms of sexualized and gender-based violence including: sexual assault, sexual harassment, voyeurism, stalking, and online sexual violence;
• Discuss common responses to trauma; and
• Identify trauma-informed ways to respond to disclosures of sexualized and gender-based violence.

Spaces will be limited to a maximum of 20 participants at each session so that we can maintain a supportive and safe learning environment.

If you have any questions, please email us at ctl.ubco@ubc.ca
