Risk Identification Survey
Domestic Abuse is a crime which affects individuals and families from all backgrounds. It can be difficult to identify and even harder to accept, especially for the person experiencing it. People sometimes mistake it as only physical violence when actually it includes many more behaviours that are perpetrated to exercise control and power.
This risk assessment survey is used by front-line specialists, like us, to identify high risk cases of domestic abuse. Its sole purpose is to safeguard your safety and protection.
To complete each question, select yes or no then use the comment box provided to give as much detail as you can. Upon completion, you will be given the choice to share your results with us so we can work with you to get the help you need.
