Session Description
Interviewing people who have experienced trauma is never easy, but it is even more difficult in this time of COVID-19 and stay-at-home orders. With most interviews conducted over a computer screen, investigators need to find new approaches to these interviews in order to minimize re-traumatization and get people’s accounts as accurately as possible.
Presenters:
Presented by Keith Rohman and Dr. Brenda Ingram, this webinar will discuss Trauma-Informed Virtual Interviewing (TIVI) and offer tools to help investigators conduct difficult interviews remotely. T9 Mastered’s experts will discuss specific techniques for building rapport, easing witness anxiety, dealing with technical glitches and understanding the unique perspectives needed for interviewing people who may have experienced trauma.
