Resources for Domestic Abuse Survivors
The Safe & Together Institute specialises in training and educating professionals who work with families impacted by domestic abuse. Our primary mission is to transform how systems respond to domestic violence and coercive control through our comprehensive training programs for practitioners.
We do not provide direct services to survivors. If you are currently experiencing domestic abuse or are concerned about someone who is, please reach out to your local emergency line or domestic abuse service for immediate assistance.

Ally Guide
Family and friends are often the first people to notice something is wrong and the first people victims turn to for help. Unfortunately, despite good intentions, these conversations sometimes go awry. The Ally Guide can assist you in supporting survivors of domestic abuse.
