Engender Equality

Engender is a small, sophisticated service supporting those affected by family violence to recover and integrate the impacts of harmful relationships on their lives. We deliver customised interventions that are tailored to address trauma, mental health impacts, and legal challenges within a framework of individual and feminist-based empowerment. This approach restores our client's connection, emotional regulation and self-esteem which is often annihilated by family violence. This grant will enable the extension of our phone/video counselling capacity to provide more timely service to people who would otherwise be waiting a minimum of 8 months to talk to one of our counsellors.
