Dr Mark Farrall is to be a keynote speaker at the March 5th 2015 launch of 'Help', a new Merseyside probation programme for domestic violence and abuse.
The programme is an early intervention model which takes a gender inclusive perspective, and has been developed by probation officers Cindy Green and Roy Cook.
Dr Farrall said: "I was a supervisor to Cindy and Roy for a number of years in Merseyside, and it was always a pleasure to work with their openness to a humanistic, strengths based approach.
I obviously support the approach they are taking and very much hope that this programme will serve as a banner to move beyond the gendered power and control approach which is currently the basis for most Probation programmes"
