The Canal Communities Community Based Public Safety strategy seeks to reduce violence through targeted interventions initiatives, focusing on vulnerable communities. Key strategies include relationship-based violence prevention, engaging community members as credible safety professionals, and fostering community self determination. The project underscores the importance of collaborative relationships, utilising community infrastructure to support violence prevention, victim support, and community healing.
Central to the plan is investment in cultural, gender, and age-appropriate development supports for individuals at the centre of violence cycles, addressing core drivers like economic needs and mental health. By understanding the stressors in violent environments, a non-judgemental approach can help perpetrators transform their behaviours.
