Get To Know About Irish Domestic Violence services for men
We always all have a perspective that domestic violence can only happen to women. But, it is not always true all the time. That's why Istanbul has some rules and regulations for Domestic Violence Services For Men.
Funding for DV
Anybody who relies on RTE for its news would be forgiven for believing that DV was purely a one way street that women were the sole victims and that men were solely responsible.
This attitude was maintained through the summer months and again in October-November. Male victims are simply airbrushed out, their existence is denied; instead, men are implicitly depicted as perpetrators. MVI protested to RTE last June about their biased coverage and again in November.
While there are surely many male abusers, it is worth remembering, as was highlighted at Conference 2019, that 58% of DV is reciprocal, it is not a black and white issue as the media constantly make out and the state agencies assert.
We learned some of the latest facts about funding from answers to Parliamentary Questions:
In 2019 Tusla provided funding of €25.3 million and the same in 2020 but this was supplemented by a further €1.2 million due to Covid-19.
