COMMUNITY TRAININGS

Turning Point of Lehigh Valley offers dynamic and educational training opportunities for businesses, schools, faith communities, healthcare providers, community groups, and more. Our trainings are designed to raise awareness about domestic and intimate partner abuse, promote effective prevention strategies, and equip individuals and organizations with the tools to help support survivors. Together, we can create a safer, more informed, and compassionate community.

Health & Medical Focused

We have tailored our training opportunities for all areas of healthcare. These sessions help medical professionals recognize the signs of abuse, respond in a trauma-informed way, and confidently refer patients or colleagues to the right support.

Community Trainings

Our specialized training sessions are tailored to empower community members to recognize the signs of domestic and intimate partner abuse, respond in a trauma-informed manner, and connect individuals to vital resources and support services. These presentations are designed to create safer, more supportive environments throughout the Lehigh Valley. We partner with a wide range of organizations—including faith communities, universities, libraries, nursing homes, and other community-based agencies—to ensure that everyone has the tools to support survivors.

School Based Groups and Education

Our school-based presentations are tailored for middle and high school students to meet them where they are. These sessions are designed to help teens explore important topics such as healthy vs. unhealthy relationships, setting boundaries, effective communication vs. conflict, and self-awareness. Each presentation creates space for students to learn what healthy relationships look like, sound like, and feel like—starting with the one they have with themselves.
