Online Launch of innerBoy Australia

30 September 2024

10:00 - 11:30am AEST, online

She Is Not Your Rehab has been pivotal in New Zealand, helping men manage their emotions by encouraging them to confront their childhood trauma and take responsibility for their healing. In response to the urgent need to tackle high rates of family violence, they developed the innerBoy app. This tool addresses mental health issues, trauma, and abuse, significantly reducing the risk of individuals with childhood trauma resorting to violence. Through a partnership between She Is Not Your Rehab, The Griffith University Disrupting Violence Beacon & DVConnect, the innerBoy app will soon be available in Australia. This collaboration promises to enhance the effectiveness of our response to family violence by fostering a path of empathy and accountability for those at risk of using violence.
