Protective Behaviours is based on two simple themes: 1) we all have a right to feel safe all the time and 2) there is nothing so awful we cannot talk with someone about it. These themes are not so much taught as internalised, and, in this, the program differs from others. It is not a step-by-step teaching guide, but rather a conceptual framework for empowering the individual.
