Pamela Turbeville Speaker Series – 'Multidisciplinary and Interdisciplinary Approaches to Family Violence'
Neil Websdale, director of the Family Violence Institute at Northern Arizona University and director of the National Domestic Violence Fatality Review Initiative will present a talk as part of the UA Frances McClelland Institute's Pamela Turbeville Speaker Series, titled "Multidisciplinary and Interdisciplinary Approaches to Family Violence."
Abstract:
Through the lens of various projects housed at the Northern Arizona University Family Violence Institute, Websdale will explore multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches to the social and historical problem of family violence. Using everyday examples of applied community interventions, including fatality review, risk assessment, institutional ethnography, direct service projects and public/professional education and training, he will explore the complex dynamics of utilizing scholarly knowledge in real-world settings.
