Training about domestic violence and coercive control following changes in the 209A law.&nbsp; Dr. Ellerman, domestic abuse expert and researcher, will share critical information for survivors, town/community leaders and allies.
In 2024, Massachusetts made a historic shift by expanding the Chapter 209A legal definition of domestic abuse to include coercive control, a pattern of behavior intended to harass, intimidate, and coerce compliance. This training is designed to raise awareness and equip the public with tools to identify and describe subtle patterns of abuse and control.
You will learn how to: 1) identify a wide range of abusive and controlling behaviors that change over time 2) understand how children are directly targeted and affected by coercive control 3) see through the ways that abusers disguise and normalize their abuse 4) learn how survivors can use the 209A law to obtain legal protection 5) understand the challenges of post-separation abuse.
Helpful for community members navigating controlling or abusive relationships, their friends, family, allies, and local leaders.

Rental Information for Event Below::
For everyone asking about the kayak rentals for the Paddle Natick event — here are the details!
We have arranged delivery of professional grade Old Town kayaks directly to the launch site. These are the same boats used by paddling centers across New England — stable, comfortable, and perfect for beginners and experienced paddlers alike.
What is available:
Single Kayak — Old Town Loon 120 Perfect for a solo paddler. Exceptionally stable and easy to maneuver. One of the most popular recreational kayaks in New England.

Tandem Kayak — Old Town Dirigo Tandem Plus Perfect for two people — a great option for couples, friends, or a parent and child. Stable and easy to paddle together.

The Cost
Delivery and pickup to the site averages approximately $100 per boat. We are actively seeking sponsors to bring that cost down — and our goal is to make rental boats free or close to free for everyone who wants to paddle.
Every dollar donated to our GiveButter campaign goes directly toward covering rental costs so that nobody is left on shore because of cost. If you want to sponsor a boat visit our fundraising page. <a href="https://givebutter.com/paddle-the-dam-get-natick-on-the-water-before-its-gone-jguiix" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://givebutter.com/paddle-the-dam-get-natick-on-the-water-before-its-gone-jguiix</a>
Spots are Limited
We are limiting rentals to approximately 32 people from a logistics and coordination standpoint. If you want a rental boat reserve your spot now — reply to this post or send a private message with:
• Single or tandem kayak • Number of people in your group • Contact information for confirmation
You do not need experience. These boats are designed for beginners and the South Natick impoundment is calm flatwater — one of the most beautiful and most canoeable stretches of the entire Charles River according to the Charles River Watershed Association’s own 1973 guide. Bring your own boat if you have one — canoes, kayaks, paddleboards all welcome. The more boats on the water the better.
Not a paddler? We need volunteers on shore too — reply and let us know if you would like to help. See you on the water. 🌊
