SUMMARY:The Language of Partner Abuse: Are We Actively Listening?
DESCRIPTION:Facilitated and Sponsored by the DC Peace Team \nDate: Sat. October 4th\, 1:00am-4:00pm ET\nLocation: ONLINE (Zoom link provided after registration and about 24 hrs. before the session)**\nFor questions contact Sal Corbin at sal.corbin@yahoo.com \nEffective partner communication is essential to long-term success\, happiness\, and satisfaction in relationships. Chapman’s Five Love Languages has been a model for understanding the language of our significant other. This session reveals the psychological foundations for unhealthy communication which can challenge people’s sense of safety and security in the world and compromise their identity which informs their relationship choices. Abuse or neglect towards partners can be one of these outcomes. We will focus on language preferences that intentionally or unintentionally cause harm through manipulation\, deceit\, or control. Alternate ways of effectively communication will be visited and demonstrated. \nObjectives:\n1)    Awareness – raise awareness of effective communication\n2)    Insight – Review typical communication styles that produce harm\n3)    Skills – learn how to support families/friends/colleagues/neighbors that are in abusive relations\n4)    Provide resources for partner violence situations
