In this episode, Dr. Nicole Letourneau, Scientific Director of the Alliance against Violence and Adversity (AVA), a CIHR-funded National Health Research Training Platform and Women’s and Girls’ Health Hub. We welcome Dr. Kendra Nixon, a leading researcher in violence prevention and Director of RESOLVE, a tri-prairie research network focused on family and gender-based violence.

Together, they dive into foundational concepts from AVA’s Online Training Platform, covering:
• Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)
• Family Violence
• Gender-Based Violence
• Root Causes of Violence
• Impacts on the Health of Girls, Women, and Gender-Diverse People

Together, we’ll explore these critical issues and discusshow we can work towards reducing violence and improving health outcomes for those affected. At AVA we are working together to make things better.
