Combatting Domestic Violence

Battered women in the Canadian Muslim and South Asian community face a complex and uniquely difficult set of challenges. Many come from societies that believe that man is entitled to dominate and physically “discipline” his wife. These women are left further marginalized by the economic, linguistic and social isolation they face in their country of origin.

Through our various projects on breaking the cycle of violence we have enlighten and informed men regarding the devastation of domestic abuse, its root causes and provided them with the tools to prevent violence against women.

We use family centered, culturally and linguistically appropriate methods to inform boys, girls, men and women about their rights in Canada as well as how to prevent domestic violence situations and engage in more productive and fruitful familial relationships.

REH’MA Community Services believes that community education plays a major role in preventing violence against women. Through community workshops, seminars, and information sessions, we have helped to prevent, reduce, and combat violence against women.
