Trauma Provider Network Action Work Group
Notes From October 5, 2022, from 12:00pm-1:00pm

Meeting Notes:
Thank you to all who joined our October 2022 RGN/Trauma Provider Network Meeting, National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. The Trauma Provider Network (TPN) action team of Resilient Guilford focuses on
direct service coordination, education, and outreach.
A Huge Thank You to our speakers Iris Sunshine, Executive Director Children’s Law Center of Central North Carolina, Paige Gilliard, Supervising Attorney, Children’s Law Center of Central North Carolina and Marva
Edwards, Peer Support Specialist, Kellin Foundation.


Iris Sunshine and Paige Gilliard spoke on the impact of domestic violence on children and the role of Guardian Ad Litem. A Guardian Ad Litem is an officer of the court, representing the best interest and wishes of children
and acts as a set of impartial eyes and ears for district court judges. GAL’s involvement significantly reduces subsequent family violence in 50B cases.
Marva Edwards spoke from a peer support perspective and what providers should know about supporting and serving survivors in particular demonstrating compassion and being mindful of the language and approach.
If you would like to view the presentations, you can view them on our YouTube channel and see the recording
