Domestic Abuse: Supporting Young People

Early trauma informed support to help young people affected by domestic abuse

Self Directed Learning Modules

After attending the 2 day core training, you will go on to study the specialised Young People: Domestic Abuse Programme self-directed learning modules. Once complete you will be accredited to deliver the Healing Together to young people affected by domestic abuse. You can only access the portal after you have completed your core training. 

The self directed learning modules will take approximately 5 hours to complete.

Please note:

The programme does not ask young people to talk about their experiences of domestic abuse and there is no reference to domestic abuse in the video animations or worksheets. This is a pure trauma informed programme.

 Please follow your safeguarding procedures if a child makes any disclosures.
