Recognising & responding to coercive control for non-domestic violence Specialists
Need to know – coercive control & family violence training
Coercive control is a hidden yet pervasive form of abuse, and we may all find ourselves in a position to respond to someone experiencing, living with, or escaping its effects.
This essential masterclass is designed for professionals outside of Domestic and Family Violence services and has been developed to equip you with the knowledge and confidence to provide an informed and supportive initial response. Gain a clear understanding of what coercive control is, it’s defining patterns of behaviour, and its profound impact on victim-survivors.
Explore practical strategies for safe and helpful responses, and evidence-based safety planning, and unpack the legal remedies available across Australian States and Territories. Be guided toward a consistent, trauma-capable, and person-centered response to victim-survivors and persons using violence.
Join us to build the skills and knowledge needed to make a meaningful difference in addressing coercive control in your community.
