Description

Description (Service)

Using a gender-based analysis framework, the BRAVE Committee coordinates the community’s response to gendered violence, domestic violence and sexual violence

Informed by an anti-oppressive, equity-seeking, intersectional lens, BRAVE responds to these forms of violence through:

  • advocacy for improvements in existing systems, prevention and intervention initiatives
  • coordination and improvement of the flow of information between agencies to ensure a sound knowledge base for the application of domestic violence and sexual violence protocols
  • promotion of education and training among agencies
  • increased accountability in the delivery of each member agency’s respective service
