Blueprint for safety
- The Blueprint for Safety model, developed by Dr Ellen Pence and her team, focuses on closing the gaps in the interagency response to domestic abuse crimes.
- In 2016, Madeline Mc Aleer attended ‘Blueprint For Safety Training’ in St Paul, Minnesota.
- In 2018, Haven Horizons, in conjunction with the GNPSB, brought a team of experts from St. Paul, Minnesota, to Ireland to present the model to national DSGBV representatives.
