Domestic Violence
Family violence is the abuse of power within a family that threatens the safety and well-being of an individual.
Sexual Assault
Sexual assault is an unwanted attack that is sexual in nature.
This type of violence not only includes rape but refers to any type of sexual behaviour or contact that occurs without the victim’s consent.
Suicide Prevention & Sudden Death
The sudden and unexpected death of a loved one is difficult and often doesn’t make sense. There is no right way to react to a sudden loss and there is no timeline for the grieving process.
