The Domestic Violence Intervention Centre (DVIC) is the cantonal agency for violence within marriage, partnerships and families. Domestic violence is physical, psychological or sexual violence that is carried out or threatened, and has serious consequences for the victims. Stopping violence, protecting victims and holding perpetrators accountable – these are the main objectives of the cantonal measures to curb violence in close social environments. Domestic violence is not a private matter. The IST is the specialised point of contact and stands for a consistent zero tolerance policy towards domestic violence. The intervention centre is responsible for coordination and networking, data collection and impact monitoring. The IST advises and trains institutions that deal with the phenomenon of domestic violence. In addition, the intervention centre has been responsible for the successful implementation of the learning programme for violent men for over 10 years.

The Service de lutte contre la violence domestique (SLVD) organises consultations on violence. These are offered as part of a prevention programme in the form of individual interviews or discussion groups. They are aimed at people who have resorted to violence or are afraid of doing so, and who want to learn how to resolve conflicts peacefully.

The AHG-Aargau is the cantonal point of contact for domestic violence. The AHG contacts all parties involved following a police intervention due to domestic violence. It advises and informs self- and third-party reporters about support services and how to proceed. If children are involved, the child protection groups are consulted. The AHG also offers a learning programme or violence counselling for perpetrators of violence, especially if an official order or recommendation has been issued.

We have been advising and treating clients on the topics of conflict and violence since 2001. We offer counselling in the following locations: AI/AR St. Gallen, GL Rapperswil, GR Chur, SG Rapperswil, St. Gallen, SH Schaffhausen, SZ Rapperswil, TG Weinfelden, ZH Zurich

The ‘Children & Violence’ foundation contributes to the protection of children and young people throughout Switzerland by providing financial support to individuals and institutions that are involved in projects for the prevention, early detection and combating of child abuse – as well as the counselling, care and treatment of abused children and their families – insofar as these projects and campaigns are not the responsibility of the state.

The child protection group is an interdisciplinary assessment and advice centre for voluntary specialised child protection at the paediatric clinic. It advises private individuals and professionals on what to do if they suspect a risk and/or child abuse in relation to the mental, physical or sexual integrity of children between the ages of 0 and 16. Situations of risk and abuse can be clarified on the basis of discussions, child interviews or physical examinations. To do this, the indication and a corresponding assignment or clarification of the assignment must be provided by the civil or criminal authorities or by the legal guardians.

The child protection group team is made up of employees from the fields of psychology, social work and medicine. Their approach is transparent, proportionate, open-ended and networked.
