The whole purpose of today is to get the message out that violence against women...never an excuse, never a reason and never, ever, ever is it justified.

Triple M (Sydney) Paul & Rach Show - November 2009

The program saved my relationship and my family. In the course men dealt with not just physical abuse but also verbal abuse, their total attitude towards the way they treated other people.

I didn’t want to do this program, but my wife said if I don’t she is leaving. Over the last 24 weeks, I have learnt more about life in so many ways.

What would you tell someone whose partner is asking them to do this program and be hesitant about doing it? As long as you are honest with yourself and not afraid of any stigma, the program will change your life. You will develop a close bond with a group of men who want to improve their relationships.

The program, has provided the following insights for me: “I have choices in life”(we all have life). Behaviour change is up to me.

Definitely give it a go as you don’t know what you really like in yourself until you things pointed out to you. Good to join in discussion with others who are in the “same boat”.

I seriously recommend it! As someone who cane from a family where a short fuse was vital and communication skills did not exist, I found it it extremely helpful in understanding how hurtful it can be to my family without being physically violent. It has certainly the best thing I have done to get in touch with my self.

Do it! It’s awesome! You learn more about yourself and how you treat others. It is a wake up call.

Level one taught me what to look out for. It gave me new tools to recognize the affect of my behaviour on others.

Do it! Initially I thought I was in the wrong place, that there was nothing I could learn from this type of forum-some discussion, some issues seemed not to be relevant. But! Some other components are very worthwhile.

Loved It! The results at home have been amazing I am cable of accepting who I was and what that meant and did to others. I am now a man who thinks about others and who makes choices because of that.

I believe for every woman who finds herself in my situation, which seems never ending, would appreciate their partner doing this course. Baby steps but hopefully with time it will happen.

Brian has learnt to acknowledge when his anger is building up, and is now able to control it. He has also learnt to see things from mine and others point of view.

I can’t praise Dave & Jacqui enough after watching the show last night. I was astounded at the results having tried desperately to get through to my abusive partner who is now on community service for his anger issues and one step away from prison.

OMG… Just watched you on sunrise. When you mentioned 'tip-toing' around like on eggs shells, I knew there was something in this for me.

The UTAS Student Living Team would like to thank you both for your recent Let’s Change the Story two-day professional development. This learning experience was invaluable in leading the Student Living Support Officers to develop self-awareness and understanding of attitudes that contribute to domestic violence.
