Unified Community Response to Family Violence
Kapiti Living Without Violence is part of the Whāngaia Ngā Pā Harakeke initiative – a comprehensive safety response that unites various family harm services in stopping family violence. Working together, these services co-ordinate responses to family violence, manage risks and ensure supports are in place for people impacted by family violence. Supported by funding from the Ministry of Social Development, this initiative is key to addressing and helping to prevent family violence in our community.
