The family Court IDVA provides emotional and practical support to victims and survivors of domestic abuse going through the family courts by ensuring that they feel safe and informed and therefore better able to navigate proceedings. They will provide wrap around support throughout the duration of proceedings, make onward referrals, signpost and attend court where necessary.
As well as helping people who have suffered domestic abuse and sexual violence directly, Safer Futures is also working to educate more widely around the subject and to provide support to those impacted by domestic abuse including friends, families and professionals.
That means educating children and young people in both primary and secondary schools throughout Cornwall to recognise the signs of abuse and to help them develop and sustain healthy relationships.
It also means training professionals in a variety of fields to spot the signs and intervene early. We are running support programmes working with people who want to change their behaviour and develop healthier relationship skills, knowledge and understanding.
