Respecting Boundaries helps people who have been issued Family Violence Restraining Orders (FVROs) to make positive changes in their abusive or violent behavior.
The program offers individual and group interventions to support these changes. It also aims to raise awareness about Family Domestic Violence (FDV) and educate participants about the FVRO process. The program holds participants responsible for identifying and practicing strategies to manage their behavior, based on their individual strengths and skills. Additionally, the program provides case management support and connects respondents with FDV and other services.
Respecting Boundaries runs for 12 weeks and mixes online modules with individual and group therapy. It uses solutions and strengths-based approaches to make change. This means it examines a participant’s current situation, helps set goals for the future, and uses their individual strengths to work towards those goals.
