The Bilingual Domestic Violence Program at Lutheran Settlement House is again offering its 40 Hour Domestic Violence Volunteer Training to educate participants about domestic violence and to prepare participants to volunteer or work at a domestic violence agency in the Philadelphia area.

The training is also open to professionals who want to increase their knowledge about domestic violence and skill in working with domestic violence survivors, and who do not plan to volunteer or work at a domestic violence agency.

The training will be held January 5-12, 2010, 9am-5pm on the University of Pennsylvania campus.   The cost for professionals who do not plan to volunteer with the program is $225.  The training is free for volunteers. The registration deadline is December 14, 2009.

Those interested in attending in their capacity as a professional should email Susanna Gilbertson at sgilbertson@lutheransettlement.org or call 215-426-8610 x240;  if interested in volunteering with the program and are interested in attending the training, email Casey Sill at csill@lutheransettlement.org or call 215-426-8610 x231.
