NO MORE works with the community to reduce domestic and family violence across the Northern Territory. We do this through raising awareness of the issues of gender based violence and making social change by changing community attitudes and norms and promoting positive, equal and respectful relationships.
NO MORE aims to reduce the incidence of domestic and family violence through raising awareness and effecting social change.
NO MORE provides community information and education, group work and individual support to raise awareness and mobilise people and communities to decrease violence and increase women and children’s safety and wellbeing. We form strong collaborative relationships and work closely with sporting clubs, workplaces, community organisations, corrections, police and other community stakeholders to support community development initiatives in order to decrease the incidence and harm.
