Level 1 – Provide Information
The employer introduces NFF to all employees as an organizational resource with a link to the website and brochures available on site.
Level 2 – Increase Understanding
All employees receive a one-hour educational session about woman abuse/domestic violence with instruction on how to recognize warning signs and take appropriate action.
Level 3 – Lasting Organizational Change
Three training options:
- Select and/or senior organizational leaders receive 2 days of comprehensive training to build organizational capacity to develop policies/procedures and respond to specific situations.
- Train the Trainer - 2 day training to prepare in-house trainers to deliver Level 2 training to colleagues.
