ManKind Initiative
The ManKind Initiative is a domestic violence charity based in the United Kingdom and is at the forefront of providing support for male victims of domestic abuse and violence. Since becoming a charity in 2001, it has provided a helpline, training and support for statutory agencies (primarily the police and local authorities) and campaigns to ensure that equal recognition is given to male victims in the same way that recognition is given to female victims of domestic abuse.〔(about us )〕 It is one of only a few charities in the country to help male victims.〔(House of Commons - Home Affairs - Written Evidence )〕〔(Why do men find it so hard to admit they are being abused by their partners? - Features, Health & Families - The Independent )〕
The organisation is based in Taunton and was founded in 2001.〔https://www.charitycommission.gov.uk/SHOWCHARITY/RegisterOfCharities/CharityFramework.aspx?RegisteredCharityNumber=1089547&SubsidiaryNumber=0〕 There are regional branches in London and the South East, South West, Wales, and the West Midlands.〔http://www.mankind.org.uk/branches.html〕
==Objectives==
The ManKind Initiative believes that support should be provided to male victims of domestic violence in that all victims of domestic violence and abuse should be catered for. It rejects the gender based approach to the issue used by the government, local authorities and police and instead demonstrates that domestic violence can happen to anyone and is a societal and family problem.〔〔(It's not just women who fall victim to domestic violence | Lifestyle | GMTV )〕
The organisation is committed to challenging harmful gender based domestic violence policies and ensuring help is available to all, regardless of gender, race or sexual orientation. It strongly believes men and women should work together to tackle the issue of domestic violence, that gender politics need to be removed from the issue and victims should be treated as individuals.〔〔(More than 40% of domestic violence victims are male, report reveals | Society | The Observer )〕
