Safer Merthyr Tydfil - Family Programme - Family support services

What we do

The Family Programme run by Safer Merthyr Tydfil works across the Cwm Taf region and offers specialist support for families experiencing domestic abuse who wish to remain together.

Adopting a whole family approach, the service will provide therapeutic interventions and programmes, focusing on safety, risk management, behavioural change, impact of domestic abuse on children, ACEs, respectful communication, attachment and emotional resilience.

The aim of the service is to enable the family to live together safely or be supported to separate amicably.

The programme requires commitment from each family member to attend individual and group sessions over a period of six months.

Who do we support

Families where the couple are in an intimate relationship and there is a history of domestic abuse including:

- Couples where the woman is pregnant and there are no other children in the family
- Families with children from birth to 16 years of age
- Couples not currently living in the same household, however they need to have an intention to reconcile in the near future
- Families living in Merthyr Tydfil or Rhondda Cynon Taff areas.
