We offer intervention and counselling for victims of domestic violence. Violence can manifest itself as physical and/or psychological power, particularly in disputes over visiting rights as power of disposition over joint children. We see ourselves as an organisation for child and youth welfare and work with all victims of violence in the family system. Depending on the case, we provide counselling in individual or group/family settings.
Our counselling is demand-oriented and specifically geared to forms of violent conflict in close relationships. We support family systems, couples or individuals and initiate change processes towards a non-violent conflict culture. Our counselling is structured, methodically broad and geared towards effectiveness.

The Domestic Violence Intervention Centre (DVIC) is the cantonal agency for violence within marriage, partnerships and families. Domestic violence is physical, psychological or sexual violence that is carried out or threatened, and has serious consequences for the victims. Stopping violence, protecting victims and holding perpetrators accountable – these are the main objectives of the cantonal measures to curb violence in close social environments. Domestic violence is not a private matter. The IST is the specialised point of contact and stands for a consistent zero tolerance policy towards domestic violence. The intervention centre is responsible for coordination and networking, data collection and impact monitoring. The IST advises and trains institutions that deal with the phenomenon of domestic violence. In addition, the intervention centre has been responsible for the successful implementation of the learning programme for violent men for over 10 years.

The Service de lutte contre la violence domestique (SLVD) organises consultations on violence. These are offered as part of a prevention programme in the form of individual interviews or discussion groups. They are aimed at people who have resorted to violence or are afraid of doing so, and who want to learn how to resolve conflicts peacefully.
