To understand why survivors leave and go back, to understand why survivors stay, to understand why survivors don't report, to understand why survivors minimise the abuse and to understand survivors, society must first understand coercive control. To understand why they "look like the perfect couple out doors", to understand why perpetrators "seem like"nice people " and to understand why perpetrators also manipulate society as a whole, society must first understand coercive control. Without understanding coercive control, society cannot understand domestic abuse. Stronger Beginnings focuses on coercive control and its impact to give attendees a clear understanding of the impact it has on survivors. #coercivecontrol #domesticabuse #bespoketraining
