National Alliance to End Domestic Abuse

What are the benefits of National Alliance membership?

Annual membership includes:

• Ten 90-minute webinars from September through June

• Professional Development Certificates

• Audio downloads of current webinars and previous year's webinars

• Downloads of all handouts for past and current webinars

• Annual membership is $250 for organizations, which includes webinar access, recordings and professional development certificates for up to 20 staff members. Individual membership is $150. Though the Alliance year runs from September through June, you can join anytime.

Which webinars have you had in the past?

JWI has offered webinars since 2005. You can see a list here.

Who should join the National Alliance?

The National Alliance provides high-quality webinars on diverse topics around domestic abuse and sexual assault. A wide range of professionals have benefited from these webinars, including educators, clergy, DV advocates, social workers, attorneys, mental health professionals, law enforcement, and more. Anyone who is interested in learning more about the domestic violence field from national experts is welcome to join.

I’m not a member, but one of your webinars looks interesting. Can I just join one?

Yes. You may register for individual webinars for $25 each.

Is there any way to access these webinars for free? My organization cannot afford them and/or I don’t need continuing education credits.

Unfortunately, while we understand the challenges of finding funding for ongoing professional development, we are not able to offer webinars free of charge at this time. The Alliance is not grant-supported and needs to charge to be sustainable.

I am a member. Do I still have to register for webinars?

Yes. Members need to register for each webinar that they plan to attend. You can register for the next webinar by clicking on the event at jwi.org/national-alliance. Membership does not automatically register you for webinars.

Please remember to enter your membership promo code (provided after membership is purchased; please reach out to us if you cannot find it) at checkout when you register for each webinar to access the ($0.00) member price.

How do I get my Professional Development Certificate?

After you view the webinar, visit the PDC page and fill out the appropriate form. Once we've confirmed that you were registered for the webinar, we will send you the PDC. You must have been registered for the webinar to be eligible. 

How do I download a webinar?

Members can download all webinar recordings from this year and last year on the National Alliance Member Access page. You will need a password to view this page; contact Anna Gerstein if you are a member and do not have a password, or join the National Alliance.
