The National Resource Center on Domestic Violence (NRCDV) is pleased to invite
you to join us for a webinar on the topic of "Violence in the Lives of People
Who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing." This webinar will be offered on Tuesday, July
28th from 4pm to 5:30pm (EDT) OR Wednesday, July 29th from 10am to 11:30am
(EDT).

This webinar is part of a series of resources and information developed by the
NRCDV, and its collaborators, on issues related to violence against women with
disabilities and Deaf women. This past June, the NRCDV posted a special
collection on this subject on the National Online Resource Center on Violence
Against Women (VAWnet.org). You can view this collection and provide feedback by
going to http://new.vawnet.org/category/index_pages.php?category_id=966.

Gretchen Waech, the webinar presenter, is the former Executive Director of Deaf
Iowans Against Abuse and the Justice for Deaf Victims National Coalition.
Gretchen is a proud Deaf woman and adult child of hearing parents with
particular expertise on the intersection of domestic and sexual violence and the
Deaf culture. This webinar will provide participants with information about the
Deaf culture as well as tools for advocates and other professionals to better
meet the needs of Deaf victims/survivors of sexual and domestic violence in
local communities.
