Support services for perpetrators of abuse/abusers

Abusive and controlling behaviour is a choice. Only the person using abuse can choose to stop. If they do not want to change, they will continue to be abusive. Factors like addiction, job loss, or childhood experiences may influence someone’s life, but they do not cause abuse. There is no excuse for domestic abuse.

If you are being abusive towards someone you love or have loved, change is possible. Support is available, and taking responsibility is the first step.

Help and resources for those worried about how they are treating their partner or family member and want to stop.
