Collection: Coercive Control Education

Coercive control education is about shining a light on the invisible chains of manipulation, fear, and domination that can trap someone in an abusive relationship long before a single hand is raised. It teaches people to recognize the subtle tactics—like isolation from friends and family, control over money, constant surveillance, threats, and gaslighting—that perpetrators use to break down a person's autonomy and sense of self. This type of education is vital for schools, community groups, workplaces, and frontline services, because awareness is the first step toward prevention. It empowers individuals to name the abuse, seek support, and rebuild their confidence. And it helps allies—friends, family, professionals—spot red flags early and respond with care, safety planning, and connection to services. Coercive control thrives in silence and confusion. Education cuts through both.
