Clubs Convey Their Success in Viewing SAFE Families' Films

Feedback from many Clubs is that the presentation to their Members Meetings of the two latest short films have proven to have "hit the spot"! 

Rotary Melbourne's Peter Berg, who is an outstanding ambassador of Rotary SAFE Families, has reported that not only were the films Child Abuse and Abuse of Males shown at two recent meetings of Rotary Melbourne, but have been provided for everyone to view in their weekly Bulletin. Thank you Melbourne!

Peter was able to provide further details and questions to the meetings, using the Discussion Notes found on our website under the two films.  Thiscreated important discussion and reflection for Members and Guests. 

Rotary Melbourne is just one of many Clubs who have assisted in the Prevention of Family Abuse by simply viewing the films together.  Thanks to Rotary Hawthorn for its viewing of our film: Elder Abuse. There was great input and fellowship following the film.

See http://www.rotarysafefamilies.org.au/ RESOURCES Tab: Child Abuse and Abuse of Males for the 3 minute films and Discussion Notes.
