Behaviour Change Programs
Men’s Behaviour Change Programs (MBCPs) are predominantly group-based programs and services that focus on working with men to enable them to recognise their violent behaviour and develop strategies to stop them from using violence.
MBCPs must be registered with the Department of Communities and Justice to receive funding or referrals from the NSW Government.
