VIRTUAL HSCP – An Introduction to Recognising and Responding to Perpetrators of Domestic Abuse

This course provides an overview of how to recognise and respond to domestic abuse perpetrators.
It will help professionals identify the signs that someone might be a perpetrator – what might they say and what behaviours might they exhibit. It will also assist professionals to understand their responsibilities and what constitutes a safe response to the suspicion that someone they encounter in their practice is a domestic abuse perpetrator.
All professionals and volunteers working with children and young people in Hampshire and on the Isle of Wight* may join this free course to improve their knowledge and confidence.
