“AN OUTSTANDING PROGRAM”

"I have known Matt Boulton professionally for more than a decade and have been impressed with his past work in counselling with couples and individuals caught up in domestic and family violence. Matt has applied his vast learnings and experience in developing 'Circuit Breaker', an outstanding program to help our communities to respond to domestic and family violence in proactive ways rather than reactively. I recommend any civic leader and helping professionals to take a close look at this life changing program."

“Circuit Breaker offers a place of respect”

"It is a privilege to offer an endorsement of Matt Boulton for the work he is doing to combat and assist people affected by domestic violence (DV). Matt’s Circuit Breaker courses, along with his delivery through training and workshops offer skills for the ‘lay people helper’, skills that assist them to feel confident to broach the subject of DV. I believe Circuit Breaker offers a place of respect where perpetrators of DV can gain skills to manage and confront their issues that keep them stuck in the cycle of violence and reoffending."

“not just a game changer, but a life changer!”

"... I have never been so impressed by a course's material as I have with Circuit Breaker... for me the single most important factor is that there are no labels, whether victim, offender, witness to DV, no one is made to wear a label. People ... are made to feel valued, someone with worth and dignity and as such this forms the starting point and building block from which the program springboards. This is a tremendous course that is scalable and flexible, so much so it can be run in McDonalds, a Church or a prison. I wholeheartedly support the program and believe it is not just a game changer, but a life changer!"

“Highly Effective Course”

"It is with great pleasure that I provide this endorsement for both Ps Matt Boulton and the Circuit Breaker Course for the early prevention of domestic violence. Matt has delivered this program so far to 5 churches in the City of Logan with many more interested, and has trained others in the delivery of this highly effective course... Matt’s insightful & inspiring presentation of this information & program has resulted in the empowerment of individuals and churches to address the issue of domestic violence and provide positive responses and outcomes for our community."
