For a nonviolent home

Strong networks

In Kleve, in Emmerich, in Goch, as well as in Geldern / southern district, experts from different institutions have joined forces to form "Round Tables for a nonviolent home" in local alliances in order to connect their work against domestic violence and its consequences.

The focus of this corporation is on the mutual reconciliation and improvement of aid to victims of domestic violence, the development and implementation of preventive measures to prevent violence, and the establishment of bids for offenders. The further development of the co-operation between the various state institutions and non-governmental aid institutions is also an essential task of the network for a nonviolent home in the district of Kleve.

There are many good reasons to get to know the work of the Round Tables!
