Bespoke Programmes

Our specialist programme facilitators are dedicated to providing tailored 1:1 treatment programmes for parents whose children are involved in ongoing child protection measures, such as CIN, CP, or PLO, as well as care proceedings.

 

Each programme prioritizes the safety and well-being of children, ensuring that their needs are always at the forefront. Programmes can be delivered as a standalone intervention with a final assessment report or alongside an assessment as a Partner Abuse Intervention. 

Programme for Mothers

This ground breaking bespoke programme for mothers, delivered by specialists, aims to fill the gap in provision for mothers in child protection measures. 

Perpetrator Programme

One to one programme containing all the elements of a domestic abuse prevention programme (DAPP) but focused on areas of concern outlined by the court or local authority. 
 

Motivational Programme

Motivational programme for perpetrators which aims to move those not suitable for a behavioural change programme due to denial or minimisation to a point where they take greater acceptance of their behaviour.

Partner Abuse Interventions

A wraparound service that ties together expert assessment and a targeted treatment programme, helping parents to achieve genuine progress in protecting their children in a shorter timeframe.

TraumaSense

An innovative, trauma-responsive, psychoeducational programme designed to empower parents by providing an accessible understanding of trauma.

New Partner Abuse Interventions

This wraparound assessment and intervention provides an opportunity for parents to receive an intervention more quickly and enables parents to demonstrate that they can make positive changes to behaviours of concern. 

​

Completing a targeted treatment intervention at an early stage that aims to achieve genuine progress for parents in protecting their children, shortens timescales, provides evidence as to the parents ability to safeguard the child and avoid further proceedings. The accompanying assessment report will push the case forward providing an expert opinion on the risk posed to the child, and fills a gap in evidence as to whether parents are able to safeguard their child.

An Agency for Change

DVACT-PAI experts have used their decades of experience to develop the UK's first and only bespoke domestic abuse programmes for cases in court proceedings

​

Our programmes are accessible to all with one to one sessions delivered using video calling. We provide tablets for those who do not have suitable devices and can be flexible around session times to aid parents who have family or work commitments. Material can also be adapted to match the learning styles of clients.

​

All of our programmes are tailored to meet the needs of the case targetting key areas of concern. We can also work with those unable to attend group work such as female perpetrators, those with language needs or same-sex relationships.
