Power, Control, and Response Wheels

General Material

Power and control are the basic elements of an abusive relationship. In the hands of an abuser, almost anything can be used as a weapon to wield power and control over another. In response to wheels showing the nuances of power and control, Safe Havens developed a series of Faith-based Response Wheels. These wheels illustrate some major ways in which your faith community can help end the cycle of power and control.
