Violence is everyone's business.

 Professions such as healthcare, law enforcement, justice/legal system, social services, and education may be the first contact for victims/survivors and therefore need to have intervention procedures and protocols to recognize and appropriately respond to intimate partner violence.

Partnerships and information sharing between systems are essential for ensuring safety.

Make It Our Business

The Make It Our Business program provides information to engage employers and other workplace stakeholders on the impact of domestic violence on the workplace, to support employees at risk of or currently experiencing domestic violence, and to improve workplace health and safety.

We outline how employers, supervisors, managers, human resources professionals, security personnel, union representatives, and co-workers can recognize abusive relationships, respond to domestic violence, and refer victims and abusers to supports that offer help.  One-hour and full-day training sessions are available.

ODARA 

The Ontario Domestic Assault Risk Assessment (ODARA) is a 13-item risk assessment instrument, to be used with clients to assess the risk that their partner will assault them again.

PATHS offers a full-day ODARA training session. Certificates are issued for successful completion.

The ODARA is used by domestic violence shelters and services, police-based victim services, and probation staff and may be of interest for social workers and others who work people who use or experience violence.

Clare's Law

Clare’s Law is provincial legislation that allows police to disclose information to individuals who may be at risk from an intimate partner. PATHS was involved in the development and implementation of Clare’s Law in Saskatchewan. Members of PATHS staff sit on the Multi-Sector Review Committee, which reviews relevant anonymized information relating to the individual in question and provides a recommendation to the police service regarding the disclosure of information.

Presentations on Clare’s Law are also available. Read more about Clare’s Law here.
