<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Abusers often use economic tactics to gain power and control over a survivor, ranging from destruction of property to interruption to work to fraud. This economic abuse undermines
survivors' ability to recover from trauma or achieve independence from an abuser and can have severe and lasting consequences on their economic security. Despite being a prolific occurance within abusive relationships, many professionals within the criminal
justice system are unaware of the realities and impacts of economic abuse. For example, not only does economic abuse affect the safety and security of victims, but it also reduces their ability to participate in an investigation or prosecution. In addition,
many economic abuse tactics are crimes in and of themselves and victims may be coerced into committing economic crimes by and on behalf of the abuser. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

on economic abuse. Guest speakers Robin Hassler Thompson (ESS Faculty and President, Robin H Thompson & Associates) and Professor Judy Postmus (Associate Professor and Director, Center on Violence Against Women, Rutgers School of Social Work) will provide
an overview of economic abuse and its impacts, how to measure economic abuse, and how economic abuse intersects with the criminal justice system. Attendees will also learn about available remedies for survivors through the criminal justice system as well as
civil and community resources. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
