SEEING UNHEALTHY PATTERNS IN YOUR FAMILY AND ENSURING THAT THOSE PATTERNS END WITH YOU AND SHALL NOT BE PASSED DOWN TO FUTURE GENERATIONS IS AN EXTREMELY BRAVE AND POWERFUL DECISION

Our Programs
MASCULINITIES
InsideOut believes in order for us to combat the scrounge of Gender Based Violence we have to pay as much attention to the work with Boys and Men. This is an open invitation to anyone who is interested in InsideOut's work and have a particular interest in working with boys and men. Our aim is to look at how do we transfer some of skills so that more people are equipped enough to take on this important work
I DEFINE ME
InsideOut started as a community response to GBV facilitating girls and young women’s programs. These girls have been exposed to violence as the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against themselves on a regular basis, either resulting in injury or has a high likelihood of death, psychological or emotional harm and even deprivation. Insideout has a footprint as Women’s Rights activists which spans over more than 3 decades.
We are best placed to
- profile the existing resilience strategies of adolescents in and out of school that perpetuate violence and replicate intergenerational trauma
- create a multidisciplinary redress in the local community dealing with high levels of intimate partner abuse, substance abuse and community violence.
Intergenerational Trauma and Resilience
Our perspectives on mental health differ from those of the mainstream. These different perceptions of mental wellness lead to different solutions than those based on a mainstream analysis. The central issue is that mental wellness is understood differently through the original worldview than the mainstream and requires recognition of the intergenerational effects of colonization
THE HEALING CIRCLE
The Healing Circle is a safe and accepting environment in which we can explore our healing process.
The Healing Circle allows us an opportunity to unlock the patterns that hinder us from making up our own lives in the world.
Come as we learn to break the cycles of intergenerational trauma and start to embrace our intergenerational gifts.
