We're funding the state-first perpetrator intervention pilot program, with nine new perpetrator beds for South Australian men now open.
The perpetrator intervention trial helps men who are worried about their behaviour to reach out and break the cycle before it’s too late.
This is a huge leap forward in how we respond to domestic and family violence, because where it’s safe for people to stay in their homes, it enables them to keep important connections to school, work, family and community during a traumatic time.
The nine beds form the final part of a $4 million initiative that sees 40 new crisis beds for South Australians affected by domestic and family violence.
