Sparking Conversations with April-Autumn is the seminar and educational training component specifically designed for groups, schools, organizations and businesses who want to understand the dynamics and complexities of Power-Based Personal Violence. Power-Based Personal Violence include issues of bullying and bias, sexual harassment/assault/misconduct and intimate partner violence.

We often use the term “power-based personal violence” in recognition that this kind of violence happens to women and to men and this term is an inclusive term. This kind of violence can happen in gay and lesbian relationships, meaning perpetrator and victim can be of either sex. These seminars and trainings are based on a three-prong model of Respect, Responsibility and Resiliency.
