Family violence has a devastating impact on many from their early years. We work with the individuals and families to minimise their risk of violence, addressing issues such as communication and values sharing, along with links to other community supports. We are experienced in assessing domestic abuse situations to work on problem-solving approaches that effect long term change while respecting the needs of all involved.
