Challenge

Domestic violence affects the entire community. Programs for women and children are funded by government programs however programs for men who identify as violent or abusive in their relationships are not funded. We deliver counselling and support to women, children and men who have experienced violence in the home and in their personal relationships. Providing support counselling and resources to the entire family is a critical element in stopping the cycle of violence.

Solution

Counselling and supporting men who use violence in their relationships is a key element in ending relationship violence. Giving the men options and alternatives to using violence is a positive and empowering tool and benefits the clients and their families both in their home and in their lives in general.

Long-Term Impact

Long term effects would be a more positive family dynamic, children growing up with healthier relationship habits, families being more positive and healthy in their lives at home, at work, at school and in their community. Ending the cycle of violence benefits the men, their partners and their children and gives them skills for a more positive future and healthier relationships.
