Description

The project focuses on the prevention of domestic violence, consisting of implementing a therapeutic program for men who do not manage aggression in relationships in the South Moravian Region, Brno. It is about supporting a well-established counselling and therapeutic workplace and at the same time promoting its activities and the topic of working with violent people in the region. 

The project will achieve the goal through the implementation of two key activities:

  • Implementation of therapeutic programs (individual sessions, groups and weekend stays) for perpetrators of violence - men;
  • Implementation of therapeutic programs for perpetrators of violence - members of LGBTQ+;
  • Promotion and awareness towards the professional and general public focused on the media coverage of programs and activities related to therapeutic programs for men who do not manage aggression in relationships.

The project will be implemented in the South Moravian Region. At the beginning of the project, a comprehensive analysis of existing attitudes and willingness to perceive and address gender-based violence in the relevant professions in the field of LGBTQ+ will be performed.

The organisation will create the first-ever therapeutic program to end gender-based violence among perpetrators of interpersonal violence reporting to LGBTQ+. To ensure the high quality of the program, the project will connect within the LOI with the LOM organisation, which has been dealing with the issue of violence with perpetrators of violence for a long time.

The project will strengthen the current workplace of the organisation, which provides counselling and therapeutic services for the new programme, directly in the Spondea building. The goal of the non-aggression program is to give perpetrators basic information about the manifestations and consequences of gender-based violence and help them find a solution to their situation.
