We research and collaborate to transform the health sector response to domestic, family and sexual violence
The Safer Families Centre
Our Centre is committed to transforming health sector policy and practice responses to domestic, family and sexual violence through research, training, support tools and evaluation. We collaborate internationally and locally with researchers, practitioners and our lived experience victim-survivor group WEAVERs to promote safety, wellbeing and healing of families.
LATEST NEWS
We are just about to that time of the year again, the start of the holiday season. We at the Safer Families would like to wish everyone a safe and happy holidays. We also understand this can be a time that brings spikes of domestic and family violence. This can be due family issues, financial pressure, alcohol and many other factors. It is important that frontline staff are on alert over this period. We have an abundance of resources and training here on our website that you could consider engaging in prior to this period.
