This section will give the information and understanding needed for good practice in tackling domestic abuse and controlling and coercive behaviour. It holds practical advice on prevention and support that you can put in place to help tenants and their families experiencing domestic abuse.
It's also worth noting the connection between domestic abuse, anti-social behaviour (ASB) and safeguarding policies. In most cases of domestic abuse there will be an element of ASB and safeguarding too, and in reverse, some cases of ASB and safeguarding could mean domestic abuse.
