Domestic Violence
Prevention Education
Interactive classroom programs offered by A Safe Place's prevention education staff educate young people about the underlying dynamics of domestic violence.
Prevention educators focus on safety, self-esteem, power and control in relationships, nonviolent negotiating techniques, appropriate expressions of anger, and conflict resolution skills.
A Safe Place also offers education programs for the community (corporate audiences, civic organizations, and other public forums) and for professionals (law enforcement, teachers, victim advocates, emergency room and other health care providers).
