520			_aThis guidebook is written for those who work with abused women and children, and with their abusers. It attempts to recognize the experience of anti-violence workers in Canada and to promote individual, professional and organizational solutions to support them. Vicarious trauma is one outcome of anti-violence work. The effects of vicarious trauma are cumulative and build upon memories obtained through listening to the stories of cruelty. This creates a permanent, subtle or marked change in the personal, political, spiritual and professional outlook of the counsellor or advocate. Vicarious trauma has a life-changing effect on individuals, ultimately affecting their view of the world and their relationships and connections to families, friends and community. Understanding and working with the trauma is both an individual and organizational challenge.
