16 Days of Activism – Driving Innovation in Community Safety

16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence is a time to reflect on our collective responsibility to create safer environments for all.

At MRI Software, we are proud to contribute to this mission through solutions that empower social housing teams to respond effectively to domestic abuse (DA) and also anti-social behaviour (ASB) cases.

As we mark the 16 Days of Activism, we look at how technology like MRI Safer Communities, is helping case managers transform how they manage and resolve these critical issues.

Technology That Protects and Empowers

Developed in response to reforms introduced by the Social Housing white paper and in close collaboration with industry leaders such as Dr Kelly Henderson, co-founder and CEO of social enterprise Addressing Domestic Abuse (ADA). MRI Safer Communities is a cloud-based solution that enables case workers to deal with domestic abuse cases with precision and empathy.

This innovative solution equips organisations with tools to:

• Report incidents efficiently, ensuring vulnerable individuals receive immediate attention.
• Track case progress transparently, enabling collaboration across teams.
• Document cases comprehensively, ensuring no detail is overlooked.
• Implement and monitor interventions effectively, driving better victim outcomes and accountability for perpetrators.

Key Features Making a Difference

MRI Safer Communities integrates innovative tools like:

• AI-driven voice-to-text transcription streamlines documentation while allowing case managers to focus on victims.
• What3Words location services provide pinpoint accuracy when reporting incidents in remote or complex areas.

These features enhance efficiency and facilitate faster, more informed decision-making—critical when dealing with sensitive and urgent cases.
