South Carolina Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault
Our vision is to see highly trained, victim-centered professionals who collaborate with allied organizations and service providers to build excellent services for victims of intimate partner violence, to provide educational opportunities for the prevention of violence and abuse, and to hold offenders accountable.
Conferences, trainings and SCKNOWMORE webinars are opportunities for professionals to learn from state and national experts on best-practices, while networking with other allies from around the state of South Carolina. Many trainings and webinars provide continuing education credit for a variety of professional disciplines. SCCADVASA maintains a standing approval from SC Labor, Licensing and Regulation Board for LMSW, LMFT and LPC hours.
