Our Vision
Stand Against Violence exists to prevent violence before it happens and help create safer, stronger communities for all.
Established in 2005 following the murder of 17-year-old Lloyd Fouracre, who was beaten to death by a group of drunken youths, his death inspired our mission to prevent others from experiencing the devastating impact of violence. We believe violence is not inevitable. By working with young people early, we can reduce risk, strengthen protective behaviours and challenge attitudes and behaviours that can lead to harm. Our vision is a future where young people have the knowledge, skills and support to choose a life without violence.
