From offering counselling services to connecting survivors with legal aid, support workers play a crucial role in ensuring that the voices of those affected are heard and their rights are protected.

By empowering survivors, professionals in this field contribute to breaking the cycle of violence and fostering a society that prioritises safety, respect, and equality.
