An Overview of the Safe & Together Model

The Safe & Together Model® is an internationally recognised, child-centred approach that transforms how professionals respond to domestic abuse/coercive control. Focused on keeping children safe and supporting the non-offending parent, the model shifts practice away from victim-blaming and toward holding perpetrators accountable for their behaviour and its impact on family functioning. Through clear principles and practical tools, Safe & Together strengthens collaboration across services, improves documentation and decision-making, and builds confident, domestic-abuse-informed practitioners. This training offers essential skills for anyone working with children, families, or survivors of domestic abuse/coercive control.
