Training for DVPP Contact Activity Providers
DViP was among the first DVPP Providers in 2009 and we consider that we are able to put our knowledge and experience gained in the past 3 years to good use by sharing this with other organisations. We have therefore developed and piloted a range of training modules for DVPP providers, or organisations considering becoming CAFCASS approved providers.

Women's Aid
Domestic Abuse and Money Education – new Guidance for Professionals Supporting Survivors with Financial Issues
Women’s Aid and MAPS (moneyadviceplus) have launched new guidance for those working with survivors who have experienced financial abuse as part of their joint Domestic Abuse and Money Education (DAME) project. The guidance, which is free to download from the Women’s Aid website, recognises that financial abuse is a common feature of domestic abuse and that many survivors face financial difficulties as a consequence of the abuse they experience.
The DAME project aims to increase the knowledge and confidence of professionals when assisting survivors who are experiencing financial difficulties and learning from the project has influenced the development of the DAME Guidance for Professionals Supporting Survivors with Financial Issues.
The guidance aims to provide a step by step guide on how to assist survivors with financial issues and debt. It is not intended as a substitute for professional money and debt advice, but provides a general overview of the issues.
