From Surviving to Thriving: Navigating Non-monogamy for Survivors

Description of Event
Survivorship can be defined as folks who have been impacted by sexual violence and relationship violence. In this hour workshop, we dive into how survivorship might appear in non-monogamy, go through possible regulation suggestions, and unpack myths around survivorship within non-monogamy. This workshop is geared primarily towards victims/survivors of sexual violence or and intimate partner violence. This workshop is also for friends, partners, and family members who are navigating non-monogamy and survivorship. You don't have to be non-monogamous to take part in this workshop, but it's recommended for non-monogamous survivors of relationship-based violences.
