Caryn Pass to Present "When the Worst Happens: Honoring Survivors of Abuse and Holding Perpetrators Accountable" at the Council on Standards for International Educational Travel (CSIET) 2019 Annual Conference on November 7, 2019.
From independent schools and churches, to Wall Street and Hollywood, society is undergoing a revolution in the empowerment of survivors of sexual abuse. With it, organizations are reshaping how they investigate allegations of sexual abuse, past and present; how they hold perpetrators accountable; and how they are rethinking the avenues they provide for safely reporting misconduct.
In this session, experts in responding to sexual abuse of minors – the nation's foremost attorney serving independent schools, Caryn Pass, Esq., a nationally respected independent sexual-assault investigator, Julie Freudenheim, Esq., and CSIET's crisis-communications partner Chris Lukach, APR – will discuss how the exchange community can apply the lessons learned to helping survivors in our J-1 and F-1 programs.
