KNOW THE SIGNS - Maryborough

KNOW THE SIGNS is a brief two hour domestic and family violence awareness session for people with an intellectual or other disability, their carers and support workers. It will provide information to people:

• to assist them to recognise forms of violence, abuse and coercion.

• to determine what actions they may be able to take to respond safely both individually and collectively.

• on available and appropriate support services.
