She Is Your Neighbour is a prevention project and storytelling series exploring the realities and complexities of domestic violence by sharing stories from people of all walks of life. Through our podcast and public education series, we highlight the intersectionality of domestic violence to increase awareness, build understanding, and shift public perception. The shame and stigma surrounding domestic violence can make it difficult to talk about, but this won’t change unless we have difficult conversations.

Through individual counselling for men and community education, we are prioritizing safer communities by increasing how we foster male accountability. This unique program has three male clinicians that are working directly with men who use violence against their partners and families to help to create healthier relationships. Unlike other male accountability programs, Engaging Men is not mandated, the program is free and every client enters the program voluntarily. 

In collaboration with Waterloo Regional Police Services, the Early Intervention program works to stop violence from reocurring in relationships. This program works directly with couples that have had two domestic violence service calls in two months to connect them with support services, educate about the consequences of using violence and to help with safety planning.
