Whether individuals are the perpetrators of violence or the victims of it, nothing occurs in a vacuum. There is a story and a reason for “why,” behind the complex human causes and reactions where violence, trauma, and family dynamics are manifest. We know far more now than ever before about the “evolutionary pathway to serious violence”. This course will present our own evolutionary process for understanding violence, and introduce you to the early research, concepts, and variables that led to the development of the comprehensive Violence Threat Risk Assessment (VTRA™) model. Unlike other threat assessment models, VTRA™ is the only community-based, multidisciplinary model developed to address all forms of violence simultaneously. Therefore, this course will consider multiple forms of violence, including family, community, school, and workplace.
Module 1: Threat Assessment Foundation: Early Thinking Module 2: The Evolution of the VTRA™ Model: Early Research Module 3: The Missing Link: Connecting the Dots Module 4: VTRA™ Applies to All Forms of Violence Module 5: Worrisome Behaviors: Early Intervention Module 6: The Empty Vessel: The Power of Connection
Who should take the courses? The Foundation Courses are customized for the person who has an interest in the fields of threat assessment, trauma response, or family dynamics: including para-professionals, professionals, and those with a general interest in advancing their learning. It is designed to provide learning for those who want general exposure to the CTIP™ models as well as those who are planning—as part of their professional development—to complete any of the two-day, in-person training courses. It is also meant to provide those who have already completed two-day trainings an opportunity to refresh their learning and dive more deeply into areas that informed our current training program.
