Fatality Review Team Training: The Nuts and Bolts of Conducting a Successful Fatality Review
The Georgia Domestic Violence Fatality Review Project is hosting a free day-and-a-half training to provide Fatality Review Teams with the necessary tools for conducting successful reviews.
Day 1 (full day): On day one we will cover the fatality review methodology including; team formation, case selection, information collection and chronology development, trauma informed interview techniques, and development and implementation of recommendations.
Day 2 (half day): On day two we will present information on the issue of familicide, defined as the killing of a current or former spouse or intimate partner and one or more of their children, which is often (but not always) followed by the suicide of the perpetrator. We will include special considerations when reviewing a familicide and conduct an interactive mock review of a familicide case.
Who should attend: While all interested Family Violence Task Forces and Fatality Review Teams are invited to attend, we would like to especially encourage representation from the following counties where a familicide has occurred since 2010: Butts, Cherokee, DeKalb, Douglas, Early, Forsyth, Fulton, Muscogee, Newton, Paulding, Spalding, Troup and Whitfield.
Continuing Education Units: This training has been approved for continuing education units (CEUs) for state-certified domestic violence programs by the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council. Please note this is the only type of continuing education credits available for this training.
