Our Outreach Services

Our Outreach Services can support you or help you to support someone that you know that is or has been impacted by Family Violence. 

What is Family Violence? 
 

Family violence, also commonly referred to as domestic violence or intimate partner violence, is a pattern of abusive behavior in a familial or intimate relationship where one person seeks to gain power and control over another. This type of violence can occur between spouses, partners, parents and children, siblings, or other family members. It can take various forms, including physical violence, emotional or psychological abuse, sexual abuse, and financial control.
