Take the quiz to determine if your relationship is healthy.
Beyond DV have created the “Love&Learn” Teen Relationship App which helps young people understand what healthy/unhealthy relationships looks like and how they can access other information and support if they are in an unhealthy relationship. The App is highly interactive and gender neutral, recognising that all genders can experience unhealthy behaviours in relationships. The Love&Learn App is free and is available in the Apple and Google playstores now.

Fantastic idea for an app, provides a quick sanity check for someone who needs some validation of their concerns.

I see great potential for this App, especially for teens who really struggle to identify toxic behaviour.

Brisbane Lions Annual DV Awareness Game
Held every May, during Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month, Beyond DV partners with the Brisbane Lions to raise awareness about domestic and family violence during a Brisbane Lions game at the Gabba.
Beyond DV Founder addresses the audience of approximately 30,000 before the game, providing information about healthy/unhealthy relationships and how the whole community can play their part to eliminate domestic and family violence.
The Brisbane Lions invite families engaged with Beyond DV to be involved in pre-game activities such as the player's Guard of Honour on the field.
Dress to Express Day
QUEEN STREET MALL
Dress to Express Day, which is held annually in the Brisbane CBD in partnership with Brisbane Fashion Festival, came about as a way to raise awareness about coercive control in a more relatable/less confronting way.
Most of us have an interest in fashion, but many would not realise that one of the first and most common signs of control in a relationship is being told what you can and cannot wear, how you should wear your hair, nails, makeup etc. Almost 100% of our clients have reported that they experienced this type of control.
Helping the community to recognise coercive control through something as simple as fashion, can then lead to discussions about other forms of control (financial abuse, emotional abuse, psychological abuse, technology abuse etc).
The other focus of Dress to Express Day is to give our incredibly brave DFV survivors the opportunity to attend a public event (many have been isolated at home out of fear), supported by community members. On this day, we encourage community members to wear an outfit that makes them feel FABULOUS and walk in solidarity with DFV survivors who are rediscovering their unique identity and style.
We walk together from King George Square to the Queen Street Mall stage where insightful panel discussions, interviews, live entertainment and pop-up stalls add to the purpose of the day.
