The NSW Men’s Behaviour Change Network (MBCN) was formed in 2013 following the introduction of the NSW Minimum Standards for Men’s Domestic Violence Behaviour Change Programs in 2012. The Network is made up of all registered men’s behaviour change providers and their practitioners. The Network provides an opportunity for discussions that continually reflect on practice and the socio-political context of the work.
The Network has proactively engaged in sector development and is committed to best practice in supporting those affected by family and domestic violence and providing opportunities for men to examine and end their use of domestic and family violence.
No to Violence is funded by the Department of Communities and Justice to:
· provide sector development to the men’s domestic and family violence sector in NSW; and
· To act as secretariat to, and advocate on behalf of, the Network.
The Network meets bimonthly to discuss strategic priorities, the latest sector news, and engage in professional development. The Network meeting is open to those who are interested in male family violence interventions. Please contact nsw@ntv.org.au for more information on the next meeting.
The Network is chaired by elected representatives from the MBCN. Please contact nsw@ntv.org.au for further information.
The Network is made up of registered and provisionally registered men’s behaviour change providers as listed on the NSW Department of Communities and Justice website. We encourage collaboration amongst network members. If you require contact details for any of the service providers please contact No to Violence.
