This short video presents four practice tips for safe and meaningful engagement with men who use violence against their families by phone. Meaningful engagement remains a key determinant of change. COVID 19 has changed the way we reach people. It has changed the way we make and maintain contact.

Informed by national and international research and built on local practice knowledge this video offers practical tips that keeps safety and accountability central while maintaining an unrelenting focus on the safety of women and children.
