Youth may experience coercive control and abuse in the context of adult intimate partner violence, divorce, and separation. It is essential to acknowledge and respect the rights, safety, and well-being of young people navigating such situations. In this Webinar, you will hear the voices of three youth advocates as they describe their experiences with coercive control and abuse, and their subsequent experiences in the justice and service provision systems. Panelists will offer recommendations for how service providers and the justice system can better support youth, respect their rights, and acknowledge them as whole persons.
