Webinar: Shame-To-Guilt and Stalking: Exploring Two Forms of Intimate Partner Violence among Sexual and Gender Minorities and Women Living Rurally
Intimate partner abusers often use shaming tactics to guilt their partner(s), a dynamic this team terms “shame-to-guilt”. Abused individuals who are made to feel ashamed or guilty may be less likely to disclose their experiences of violence, leave the abusive relationship, or prioritize their personal health, thereby sustaining the abusive bond. On the other hand, stalking, which is related to some degree of surveillance and monitoring, is a form of proximity-seeking intimate partner violence (IPV) that is equally detrimental to one’s quality of life and allows the abusive partner to maintain connection to their partner(s). Both shame-to-guilt and stalking are subtle yet harmful forms of IPV that warrant closer attention. For sexual and gender minorities and women living rurally, groups that face unique vulnerabilities such as homophobia and geographic isolation, respectively, shame-to-guilt and stalking can manifest uniquely. This webinar will (1) examine how these forms of IPV can manifest in these groups through the voices of those with lived experiences and relevant service providers and (2) offer practical strategies to improve support and service delivery.
Have you listened to the RESOLVing Violence Podcast yet?
The province of Saskatchewan is home to a vibrant research community and hundreds of organizations and service providers working to prevent, respond to, and assist with recovery from violence and abuse.
Through this podcast, we hope to facilitate that transfer of knowledge from the research community to these applied stakeholders and people with lived experience, to make staying up to date on current research that much more accessible and efficient.
