Empowerment and Personal Safety for Women impacted by Violence
At PPS we are steadfast in our commitment to empowering and supporting survivors of domestic and family violence, and, sexual assault, through our Empowerment and Safety workshop tailored specifically for this resilient community.
We understand the unique and sensitive nature of the challenges faced by survivors and our program is designed with utmost care and empathy.
Through a survivor-centered approach, with our highly experienced Social Workers, we provide a comprehensive range of personal safety strategies, encompassing emotional resilience building, and personalised safety planning.
While this session also includes a component on physical self-defence skills, we emphasise that using these techniques can increase risk for women who do not have safe exit options. Our messaging is clear: self-defence should only be used when it does not further endanger personal safety.
Our mission is to create a safe space where survivors can reclaim their autonomy and confidence, equipping them with the tools necessary to navigate their lives with a renewed sense of security and empowerment.
At PPS, we stand alongside survivors in their journey towards healing and recovery, fostering an environment that champions personal safety, independence, and the pursuit of a life free from violence.
Our team works closely with a range of NGO’s supporting their clients in a safe and supportive environment.
If you’re experiencing, or have experienced, domestic or family violence, there are support services available who can assist with counselling, shelter, medical help and ongoing support.
