Coercive Control and Shared Parenting During Covid-19

Emergency Preparedness Legal & Alternative Justice Safety, Health & Wellbeing

Sponsored By

First aired in May 2020, the lessons on coercive control and shared parenting remain relevant and necessary today.

The rates of domestic violence increased during the Covid-19 pandemic as the virus spreads across the globe and into our homes. These circumstances allowed domestic abusers to find ways to exercise coercive control. This course consists of two short webinars.

The first session describes how abusers can exploit social distancing and shelter-in-place policies to achieve power and control over household members.

The second session focuses on shared legal custody and how shared legal custody can be a pathway for an abusive parent to exercise power over the victim-parent and child. During this pandemic, decisions about a child's education, healthcare, and at-home life were even more critical, and the opportunities for abusers to manipulate and entrap are increased.
