Protection Order Advocate Roundtable #2: “What to Expect” – Helping Pro Se Survivors Navigate the Protection Order Process 

Audience: KCSDV member program advocates and staff only


Date & Time:

Wednesday, June 21, 2023
9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. (CST)

Description:

The purpose of this roundtable is to provide advocates with the necessary skills to help pro se survivors navigate the protection order process. We recognize that legal proceedings can be overwhelming for everyone involved, but especially for survivors without representation. This roundtable is designed to bring advocates together to share their experiences with the protection order system, discuss local court processes and challenges, and identify best practices for supporting survivors through the process.

Objectives:

  • Identify considerations, requirements, and processes for requesting continuances in protection order proceedings
  • Discuss how to prepare pro se survivors for what to expect during protection order hearings
  • Understand the barriers survivors face when filing a protection order pro se

Facilitator:

Gabrielle Munoz
Legal Assistance for Victims (LAV) Advocacy Coordinator
Kansas Coalition against Sexual & Domestic Violence
