About the Workshop

We recognize that one of the most difficult moments in parenting and safety for domestic violence survivors is facing the abuser in court. Peace in the Courtroom is a resource to assist in preparation, allowing survivors to develop their ability to withstand this conflict and be able to effectively function within the court system.

Workshop Highlights

  • A free comprehensive workshop for women who are survivors of domestic violence navigating the court system for parenting plans, status hearings and restraining orders.
  • Casual atmosphere, educational, practical supportive community circle, and an overall good use of your time and energy. Bring a brown bag for lunch and join us for a day of goodness.
  • On site legal support at no cost with local attorneys.
