Training #1 -- in Boston
Conference on the Intimate Partner Screening Tool for GLBT Relationships.

Abuse occurs in GLBT relationships at the same rate as straight
relationships. Would you know which partner was the perpetrator and which
one was the victim?

The GLBT Domestic Violence Coalition presents a day-long training on the
Intimate Partner Screening Tool for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender
(GLBT) Relationships.

The Intimate Partner Screening Tool was created by the GLBT Domestic
