It's Our Job To HALT Domestic Violence With Dave Kramer From Small Steps 4 Hannah
Domestic abuse isn’t always physical. Coercive control is something Hannah Clarke lived with daily throughout her marriage until her husband took the lives of her and her 3 beautiful children, Laianah, Aaliyah and Trey in a horrific attack on February 19th 2020. For those who aren’t familiar with the term ‘coercion’, it is a pattern of acts of assault, threats, humiliation and intimidation or other abuse that is used to harm, punish, or frighten the victim. This controlling behaviour is designed to make a person dependent by isolating them from support, exploiting them, depriving them of independence and regulating their everyday behaviour, and unfortunately it’s happening all around us. The murder of Hannah Clarke and her children was a ‘line in the sand’ moment in Australia and in today’s episode we speak to Dave Kramer, an ambassador for Small Steps 4 Hannah on Coercive Control about how the foundation are tackling this issue head on and implementing a much needed change. We have no doubt by the end of this episode that you’ll have a clearer understanding on what Coercive Control means and we all need to play a part in helping push for this change. Things We Mention - What coercive control is and how it can be so easily hidden in plain sight. The steps you can take to get support if you’re experiencing coercive control. The importance of facilitating conversations with young men about how to manage their emotions. How Small Steps 4 Hannah uses the generous funds raised to support women who are experiencing domestic violence. PLUS Dave shares with us the Be There App and how helpful it is to determine what kind of support may be needed if you or a loved one is experiencing domestic violence.
