Experience buddy

If you have overcome domestic violence you know how difficult this can be. Do you want to help others with your experience? Which can! As an experience buddy, you are committed to people who have just come out of a domestic violence situation and are going to rebuild their lives. Because you know better than anyone what it's like to find a place in society again and dare to take that big step (yet). Help others regain their strength and overcome domestic violence. Join Maatje Achter de Voordeur and join the fight against domestic violence. Together we will tackle the taboo!

Become an experience buddy

As an experience buddy, you are now strong enough to help others. You have your own experiences of violence behind you and you have sufficiently processed them. You look back on a period that was not easy, but now you have your life back on track.
