Objectives

We are the Domestic Violence Intervention Project (DVIP), a multi-award winning charity which has been at the forefront of developing innovative domestic violence services for 25 years.

We build safer and happier communities by delivering specialist programmes to help perpetrators stop being abusive, support the recovery of victims and help young people and children feel safe in their homes and relationships. We are the only organisation in London developing and delivering a range of specialist services to all members of families affected by domestic violence. Every year we help over 1800 adults, young people and children.

We provide the following services across London:

  • Accredited violence prevention programmes to support and challenge perpetrators to change their abusive behaviours.
  • Partner support services to empower victims to recover and rebuild their lives.
  • Yuva service for young people who are being abusive in their close relationships.
