Abstract
ABSTRACT Violence against women is a pervasive issue that social workers often encounter in their practice settings. Preparing social workers to work with survivors of violence is essential, but currently, standardized, guidelines to support this process are lacking. The purpose of this study was to develop these competencies through a collaborative process with social work educators and practitioners from across the country. To achieve this goal, a total of 115 researchers and practitioners completed an online survey providing feedback on potential competencies. Using this feedback, competencies were revised and then collapsed using qualitative procedures. As a next phase, the authors will use these competencies to evaluate their master’s level social work certificate program in violence against women and children.
