Cyber Sexual Abuse Task Force: There is No Offline: Technology Facilitated Abuse and the New Normal 2020 conference. This year, our work feels more crucial and important than ever before. With the onset of the COVID-19 crisis, we saw our world change in ways we could not imagine. Technology, in many ways, has been a lifeline to many folks as we saw much of our daily life pushed into the virtual world. Unfortunately, amidst this abrupt shift to remote work and life, we have seen an increase of instances of technology being used as an instrument of abuse, exploitation, and harassment.

After the success of last year’s conference and given the current climate, the Task Force was eager to continue to shine the light on these issues and facilitate meaningful dialogue around the topic. Co-sponsored by C.A. Goldberg PLLC, Sanctuary for Families, Day One, the Mayor’s Office to End Gender Based Violence, CETA, and the New York Cyber Sexual Abuse Task Force, the conference this year will be online with the theme:

“There is No Offline: Technology Facilitated Abuse and the New Normal.”
