In this episode I speak with Deanne, who has dedicated her career of over 30 years as a social worker to responding to inter-personal violence through her work in a range of organisational contexts, including statutory and therapeutic responses to child abuse and neglect, sexual assault and domestic violence. In recent years in independent practice and working in University schools of social work, Deanne has been educating and supporting social workers and students to respond to inter-personal, workplace and institutional violence and developing models of practice that integrate critical, post-structural, feminist and trauma-informed theories with the foundational ethics of social justice.
