CoPP | PPLS | TALKING | No Buts - the book: a conversation with men who changed their behaviour | Monday 25 November 2024 | 6-7pm

[Edited extract from public address]

As part of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, join us in this safe space, where we will hear from men who have changed their violent and abusive behaviour, with the aim of understanding their lived experience and encouraging other men to seek help.   

Facilitated by Margaret Chipperfield, social worker and survivor who compiled the stories in No Buts after working with men in a Men’s Behaviour Change Program for over 11 years. 

While No Buts is a book about men and, in many cases, their untapped potential, it in no way diminishes the pain and suffering that men have inflicted upon women and children. It is because of this harm that this book has been written: to examine the causes, seek understanding, some solutions and most of all, to encourage men who need it to seek help.  

Please note: This event will discuss subject matter that may be distressing to some attendees  
  • Where: St Kilda Library, 150 Carlisle Street, St Kilda Victoria 3182
