We Say No to Violence [WSNTV] is a community project to raise awareness, improve understanding, and take action to prevent family and domestic violence in the Peel region. The Peel Community Development Group [PCDG] worked with founding members Pat Thomas House (now OVIS Community Services), Allambee Counselling, Peel Community Legal Services and Choyces to build an Alliance of community organisations and individuals.
In 2016, the PCDG won Building Safe Communities for Women funding from the Department of Social Services to undertake the project. Allambee now leads WSNTV with OVIS Community Services, Peel Community Legal Services, and Choyces.

This website tells the stories of family and domestic violence (FDV) in the Peel region, gives information and support to organisations and individuals who would like to join the Alliance and supports current Alliance members with ideas and support.
