We will explore issues such as protected characteristics, ethnicity, class and social standing, from a gender sensitive, trauma informed approach
We look at why women who commit crimes are often the same women who have suffered extreme violence and become both perpetrators and victims of appalling crimes.

We explore key skills that make us more resilient:
Visioning skills that strengthen our sense of purpose by helping us see, and then head for, the outcomes that attract us
Creative problem-solving skills that help us find a path through the obstacles in the way
Positive relationship skills that enhance our ability to find allies and draw in the support we need
Emotional intelligence skills that raise our capacity to work with our emotions, so that we can benefit from the guiding signals and energy they offer.
The day will involve a mix of presentation, storytelling, guided exercises and group discussion. The goal is to increase each participant's ability to draw upon the resilience they need in their lives.
