About the Drive Partnership
The Drive Partnership is a partnership between Respect, SafeLives and Social Finance. We came together in 2015 around a shared ambition to change the way statutory and voluntary agencies respond to high-harm, high-risk perpetrators of domestic violence and abuse. Today, we are still working together to transform the national response to perpetrators of domestic abuse. The Drive partners provide ongoing governance and leadership for all of our work through a joint project board.
The Drive Project
The Drive Project is our flagship intervention working with those causing harm in their relationships to prevent abusive behaviour and protect victim-survivors. Service users have been assessed as posing a high-risk, high-harm level of domestic abuse to the people that they are in intimate or family relationships with. They also often have multiple needs and are resistant to change. The Drive Project has an intensive case management approach that challenges service users to change and works with partner agencies – like the police and social services – to disrupt abuse.
