This week we hear from David Mandel and his work at the Safe & Together Institute around coercive control.With over 35 years' experience in the domestic violence and child welfare fields, David is the creator of the Safe & Together Model, a transformational approach to changing how systems and practitioners respond to domestic violence when children are involved. He has identified how a perpetrator pattern-based approach can improve the ability to partner with survivors, intervene with perpetrators as parents, and improve outcomes for children.   Shownotes Visit the Safe & Together Institute website Start learning now with the Safe & Together Institute Virtual Academy Listen to the Safe & Together Institute podcast Read David’s book “Stop Blaming Mothers and Ignoring Fathers: How to Transform the Way to Keep Children Safe from Domestic Violence” Follow David and the Institute on his social media @davidgmandel and @safeandtogetherinstitute
