Whether you are screening for economic abuse, responding to debt, or tackling perpetrator behaviours that undermine a victim-survivor’s economic safety, these resources are designed to strengthen your response and ensure every victim‑survivor receives informed, effective support. 

Resources and guidance on housing and legal support are under development. Professionals from these sectors can find more information on supporting victim-survivors of economic abuse here.  

Organisational capacity self-assessment tool 

This self-assessment tool supports domestic abuse services to reflect on their organisational capacity to recognise and respond to economic abuse. It covers four areas: 

• Knowledge and skills 
• Practice and response 
• Leadership and strategy 
• Partnerships and learning.  

By identifying the current organisational understanding of and ability to respond to economic abuse, services can recognise priorities for development.  

Further training and guidance 

We will continue to develop further resources, case studies and tips for best practice to help you embed the Local economic abuse advocacy model into your local areas.  

Join our practitioners’ network to stay up to date with the latest information and guidance on economic abuse advocacy.

SEA also offers bespoke training on economic abuse for a wide range of professionals. Our training is focused on building the capacity of frontline organisations to recognise economic abuse, advocate effectively for economic safety and address the systems that facilitate ongoing control by an abuser.
