Developing Inclusive Criminal Justice Responses and Support for Survivors
Chaired by Jill Corbyn with Sally Adams, Alison Jobe and Helen Williams
Content Warning: Grooming, Abuse, Sexual Assault, Rape and Coercive Control
This webinar meets with Sally Adams, Specialist Independent Sexual Violence Advocate (ISVA) and Alison Jobe and Helen Williams about their participatory research project. The panellists talk about the accommodations Sally makes when supporting Autistic people, and her suggestions for other services. All three panel members have been involved in work with Durham Police, facilitating reflective practice sessions to support officers to consider how they can adapt their approach to consider and meet the needs of autistic people and people with a learning disability. Findings and recommendations are not yet completed, but get an early insight into the learning and process of this important research.
