Students from Fountain Gate Secondary College had the thrill of a lifetime.

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 feel it is a great program and it is great that men can get together and talk over issues affecting men. I like being able to speak freely about my feeling and thoughts with the other guys and I know I am not going to be judged.

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.

Encourage them to do it. They will get a lot out of this program.

I have noticed changes in Kevin when having constant support. Reduced yelling which plays a lot with my head.

Manages stress, anger & frustration more effectively. More open about his feelings.

He has stopped making everything all about him. He is a better husband because he is more aware of when he starts his abuse and stops very quickly.

This course requires commitment from any person wanting to do it. It requires commitment to change.

Your partner needs to want to do this program for themselves. Your partner needs to be committed to changing because they themselves want to change.

My partner has never been physically abusive and I have never feared for my safety. However I was not happy with our relationship.

The work that he does is brilliant and the way he is tackling the systemic toxic masculinity is vital work. In a primary setting we are not immune from it and see these power imbalance type behaviours being reinforced by dads and ignored or brushed over by mums.

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.
