The OCSWSSW needs to have a proper action plan and time scale for mandatory training and yearly refreshers on IPV and coercive control.

Anything less is not acceptable.

3. You can read a copy of the OCSWSSW response below. Pay attention to how they don’t ensure anything is actually done.

2. The OCSWSSW response highlights how systemic failures will continue due to obvious indifference. It’s the kind of lip service you would expect from an organization that has failed so many and will not modify. The leadership there needs to change. Shame on them. No effort.

1. The OCSWSSW put out their response to the DVDRC’s recommendation REQUIRING mandatory training and yearly refreshers on IPV and coercive control. Their response was to do basically nothing except to “remind” about obligations for competency. It’s so pitiful and useless.
