The RIV Project is a 10 year Social Change Program Model that has been established through a partnership between The Women’s Cottage and the Community Bank North Richmond & Richmond part of Bendigo Bank.
The RIV Project is aimed at supporting young people, teachers, schools and families to maintain healthy and safe relationships.
The program will offer:
- Age appropriate safe relationship group learning through the Love Bites program https://www.napcan.org.au/
- Support to teachers and students through school wellness programs
- Individual support to young people in consultation with and involving their families
- Over time we will reach every high school in the Hawkesbury region and into primary schools.
- The RIV project is extensively evaluated through internal processes and by three external universities.
Business, Corporate and Government sponsors are invited to join this a unique and first of its kind 10 year social change initiative.
