Behind Closed Doors – Awareness and Upstander Intervention

Behind Closed Doors is a half-day primary prevention workshop for organisations who believe that everyone has a part to play in ending family violence. We have designed this workshop to support a range of organisations from corporate, mining, education, health, government, and not-for-profits as the first step to towards primary prevention. Through employing experiential learning we can foster a deep understanding of the complexities and nature of family violence while ensuring we provide practical skills to support survivors and be a positive upstander.

Participants will engage in scenes that simulate real-life scenarios, allowing them to step into the shoes of both victims and users of violence. By immersing themselves in these experiences, attendees not only gain practical knowledge but also internalise the importance of creating safe and supportive environments for themselves and their loved ones, thereby contributing to the prevention of family violence in their communities.
