The T&TCADV is comprised of individuals and organisations addressing the concerns of violence in the society. We try to be representative of both rural and urban areas. Our programmes support and involve persons of all racial, social, religious and economic groups, ages and lifestyles. We oppose the use of physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, financial and spiritual violence as a means of control over others. We support wholesome family life, equality in relationships, and the concept of helping people to assume control over their own lives.
